Historically, protoc-gen-go outputted the escaped form of bytes as provided by protoc verbatim. This behavior is buggy, but nothing really uses this tag since default values are properties of getters instead of serialization. Rather than fixing it, just preserve prior behavior. Otherwise, logic depending on the old legacy behavior will not be able to distinguish between the unescaped or the escaped forms. Furthermore, since protoc-gen-go historically copied the protoc output verbatim, we will need to escape the default bytes in a way that is identical to the CEscape function from strutil.cc of the protoc source code.

Next Generation Go Protocol Buffers
WARNING: This repository is in active development. There are no guarantees about API stability. Breaking changes will occur until a stable release is made and announced.
This repository is for the development of the next major Go implementation of protocol buffers. This library makes breaking API changes relative to the existing Go protobuf library. Of particular note, this API aims to make protobuf reflection a first-class feature of the API and implements the protobuf ecosystem in terms of reflection.
