We change Unmarshal to reset a message by default.
* We add a Merge option to UnmarshalOptions for explicit merging.
* We speed up Reset by checking for the Reset method.
* Remove TODOs in prototext and protojson about reset behavior.

Fix a bug where using Message.Range alone does not clear
memory references for empty, but allocated lists and maps.
Thus, we iterate over every known field and explicitly call Clear.

Added API:
Message.Len
Message.Range
Message.Has
Message.Clear
Message.Get
Message.Set
Message.Mutable
Message.NewMessage
Message.WhichOneof
Message.GetUnknown
Message.SetUnknown
Deprecated API (to be removed in subsequent CL):
Message.KnownFields
Message.UnknownFields
The primary difference with the new API is that the top-level
Message methods are keyed by FieldDescriptor rather than FieldNumber
with the following semantics:
* For known fields, the FieldDescriptor must exactly match the
field descriptor known by the message.
* For extension fields, the FieldDescriptor must implement ExtensionType,
where ContainingMessage.FullName matches the message name, and
the field number is within the message's extension range.
When setting an extension field, it automatically stores
the extension type information.
* Extension fields are always considered nullable,
implying that repeated extension fields are nullable.
That is, you can distinguish between a unpopulated list and an empty list.
* Message.Get always returns a valid Value even if unpopulated.
The behavior is already well-defined for scalars, but for unpopulated
composite types, it now returns an empty read-only version of it.
