Descriptor methods generally return a Descriptor with no Go type
information. ExtensionType's Descriptor is an exception, returning an
ExtensionTypeDescriptor containing both the proto descriptor and a
reference back to the ExtensionType. The pure descriptor is accessed
by xt.Descriptor().Descriptor().
Rename ExtensionType's Descriptor method to TypeDescriptor to make it
clear that it behaves a bit differently.
Change 1/2: Add the TypeDescriptor method and deprecate Descriptor.

Change protoiface.ExtensionDescV1 to implement protoreflect.ExtensionType.
ExtensionDescV1's Name field conflicts with the Descriptor Name method,
so change the protoreflect.{Message,Enum,Extension}Type types to no
longer implement the corresponding Descriptor interface. This also leads
to a clearer distinction between the two types.
Introduce a protoreflect.ExtensionTypeDescriptor type which bridges
between ExtensionType and ExtensionDescriptor.
Add extension accessor functions to the proto package:
proto.{Has,Clear,Get,Set}Extension. These functions take a
protoreflect.ExtensionType parameter, which allows writing the
same function call using either the old or new API:
proto.GetExtension(message, somepb.E_ExtensionFoo)
