We had _upb_Message_New(), which created a message from a mini table and was
being used outside of upb even though it is an internal-only function.
We also had upb_Message_New(), which created a message from a message def.
Now there is a single public function, upb_Message_New(), which creates a
message from a mini table and covers all use cases. (The internal version has the same definition and is used for inlining.)

Continuing the trend of giving individual build targets their own subdirs
where appropriate, and leaving behind temporary stub headers for compatibility.
JSON is a particularly good choice for this because of how little interaction
it has with the rest of upb.

The functions declared in reflection.h use neither arrays nor maps, so (a) stop including the array and map definitions, and (b) update the handful of other source files which were relying on that transitivity.

* WIP.
* WIP.
* Tests are passing.
* Recover some perf: LIKELY doesn't propagate through functions. :(
* Added some more benchmarks.
* Simplify & optimize upb_arena_realloc().
* Only add owned blocks to the freelist.
* More optimization/simplification.
* Re-fixed the bug.
* Revert unintentional changes to parser.rl.
* Revert Lua changes for now.
* Revert the arena fuse changes for now.
* Added last_size to the arena representation.
* Re-applied Lua changes.
* Implemented upb_arena_fuse().
* Fix the compile by re-ordering statements.
* Improve comments.
* [textformat]: added missing newline when a message opens.
* Added tostring() support to Lua that prints to text format.
Also fixed a gnarly bug that this exposed.
* Removed reflection and other extraneous things from the core library.
* Added missing files and ran buildifier.
* New CMakeLists.txt.
* Made table its own cc_library() for internal usage.
upb_msg was trying to be general enough that it could either live in
an arena or be allocated with malloc()/free(). This was too much
complexity for too little benefit. We should commit to just saying
that upb_msg is arena-only.
I also ripped out the code to glue upb_msg to the existing
handlers-based encoder/decoder. upb_msg has its own, small, simple
encoder/decoder. I'm trying to whittle down upb_msg to a small
and simple core.
I updated the Lua extension for these changes. Lua needs some more
work to properly create arenas per message. For now I just created
a single global arena.
Also includes an implementation of the conformance tests
to display what the API usage will be like.
There is still a lot to do, and things that are broken (oneofs,
repeated fields, etc), but it's a good start.
This involves:
- remove upb_msglayout -> upb_msgfactory dependency.
- remove upb_msglayout -> upb_msgdef dependency (in progress).
- make upb_msglayout use a representation that can be
statically initialized by generated code.
The goal here is that upb_msglayout becomes a kind of "descriptor
lite": it contains enough data to parser and serialize protobufs
and manipulate a upb_msg in memory, while being far smaller and
simpler than a full descriptor. It also does not include field
names, which can be a benefit for applications that do not want
to leak field names.
Generated code can then create a upb_msglayout, and do most things
without ever needing to construct full descriptors/defs if they
don't want to.
