reflect/protoreflect: add alternative message reflection API 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.

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.

We appreciate community contributions. See CONTRIBUTING.md.
