all: rename ExtensionType Descriptor method to TypeDescriptor (1/2)

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.

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.
