Joe Tsai 90fe996bd1 internal/impl: derive descriptors for legacy enums and messages
In order for the v2 rollout to be as seamless as possible, we need to support
the situation where a v2 message depends on some other generated v1 message that
may be stale and does not support the v2 API. In such a situation, there needs
to be some way to wrap a legacy message or enum in such a way that it satisfies
the v2 API.

This wrapping is comprised of two parts:
1) Deriving an enum or message descriptor
2) Providing an reflection implementation for messages

This CL addresses part 1 (while part 2 has already been partially implemented,
since the implementation applies to both v1 and v2).

To derive the enum and message descriptor we rely on a mixture of parsing the
raw descriptor proto and also introspection on the fields in the message.
Methods for obtaining the raw descriptor protos were added in February, 2016,
and so has not always been available. For that reason, we attempt to derive
as much information from the Go type as possible.

As part of this change, we modify prototype to be able to create multiple
standalone messages as a set. This is needed since cyclic dependencies is allowed
between messages within a single proto file.
