Previously, extensions with field numbers greater than 268435455 would
result in a compile time error in generated code that looks something
like this:
Foo.java:3178: error: integer number too large: 3346754610
3346754610);
This is because we were trying to represent the tag number (an
unsigned int) using a java int constant, but java int constants are
signed, and can't exceed Integer.MAX_VALUE.
Fixed by declaring it as a long instead, and casting it down to an
int in the implementation. This is safe, because the tag value always
fits in 32 bis.

(Having regenerated descriptor.proto relative to src, the earlier commented-out code checking that dependencies match may now be okay to uncomment again. Will experiment in later CLs.)
This commit includes changes to the C#-specific protos, and rebuilt versions of the "stock" protos.
The stock protos have been locally updated to have a specific C# namespace, but this is expected to change soon, so hasn't been committed.
Four areas are currently not tested:
1) Serialization - we may restore this at some point, possibly optionally.
2) Services - currently nothing is generated for this; will need to see how it interacts with GRPC
3) Fields beginning with _{digit} - see https://github.com/google/protobuf/issues/308
4) Fields with names which conflict with the declaring type in nasty ways - see https://github.com/google/protobuf/issues/309
1) Remove CSharpOptions
2) A new version of DescriptorProtoFile (with manual changes from codegen - it would otherwise be Descriptor.cs)
3) Turn off CLS compliance (which we'll remove from the codebase entirely; I don't think it's actually relevant these days)
4) Add "public imports" to FileDescriptor, with code broadly copied from the Java codebase.
Lots more changes to commit before it will build and tests run, but one step at a time...
1. make google/protobuf/stubs/pbconfig.h before making protoc, otherwise it
won't build a freshly checked-out code.
2. Document the build environments that have been tested to work.
3. Add support for MINGW64
