- Rename the accessors from upb_MiniTable_Foo() to upb_Message_Foo()
- delete _upb_Message_Clearext() which is now redundant
- Allow the getters and setters to accept both extension and non-extension fields
- Add a (upb_Arena*) param to setters (only needed for extensions)
- Change setters from void to bool (since extensions may require allocations)

upbdev_ProcessStdout() does the same thing as upbdev_ProcessOutput() except
instead of returning the serialized buffer it just sends it directly to stdout.

_upb_MiniTable_Build() is now the general version of the function;
upb_MiniTable_Build() calls it and sets the platform to default/native.
PiperOrigin-RevId: 491091021
upb_MiniTable_BuildEnum() -> upb_MiniTableEnum_Build()
upb_MiniTable_BuildExtension() -> upb_MiniTableExtension_Build()
also make the status pointer argument optional for the mini table builders

This required some work to unify map entry messages with regular messages, with respect to presence. Before map entry fields could never have presence. Now they can have presence according to normal rules. Note that this only applies to times that the user constructs a map entry directly.

Prior to this CL, there were several different code paths for reading/writing message data. Generated code, MiniTable accessors, and reflection all performed direct manipulation of the bits and bytes in a message, but they all had distinct implementations that did not share much of any code. This divergence meant that they could easily have different behavior, bugs could creep into one but not another, and we would need three different sets of tests to get full test coverage. This also made it very difficult to change the internal representation in any way, since it would require updating many places in the code.
With this CL, the three different APIs for accessing message data now all share a common set of functions. The common functions all take a `upb_MiniTableField` as the canonical description of a field's type and layout. The lowest-level functions are very branchy, as they must test for every possible variation in the field type (field vs oneof, hasbit vs no-hasbit, different field sizes, whether a nonzero default value exists, extension vs. regular field), however these functions are declared inline and designed to be very optimizable when values are known at compile time.
In generated accessors, for example, we can declare constant `upb_MiniTableField` instances so that all values can constant-propagate, and we can get fully specialized code even though we are calling a generic function. On the other hand, when we use the generic functions from reflection, we get runtime branches since values are not known at compile time. But even the function is written to still be as efficient as possible even when used from reflection. For example, we use memcpy() calls with constant length so that the compiler can optimize these into inline loads/stores without having to make an out-of-line call to memcpy().
In this way, this CL should be a benefit to both correctness and performance. It will also make it easier to change the message representation, for example to optimize the encoder by giving hasbits to all fields.
Note that we have not completely consolidated all access in this CL:
1. Some functions outside of get/set such as clear and hazzers are not yet unified.
2. The encoder and decoder still touch the message without going through the common functions. The encoder and decoder require a bit more specialized code to get good performance when reading/writing fields en masse.

Remove circular dependencies that were bouncing back and forth between
msg_internal.h and mini_table/, including:
- splitting out each mini table subtype into its own header
- moving the non-reflection message code into message/
- moving the accessors from mini_table/ to message/

Move the map-related functions from msg_internal.h that are only used in generated code into map_gencode_util.h. Then move the rest of the map-related functions from msg_internal.h into map_internal.h.

We need to sharpen the distinction between messages and extensions in the mini
descriptor encoder, so split the code paths for each.

Prior to this CL, users were relying on `field->descriptortype` to get the field type. This almost works, as `field->descriptortype` is almost, but not quite, the field type of the field. In two special cases we deviate from the true field type, for ease of parsing and serialization:
- For open enums, we use `kUpb_FieldType_Int32` instead of `kUpb_FieldType_Enum`, because from the perspective of the wire format, an open enum field is equivalent to int32.
- For proto2 strings, we use `kUpb_FieldType_Bytes` instead of `kUpb_FieldType_String`, because proto2 strings do not perform UTF-8 validation, which makes them equivalent to bytes.
In this CL we add a public API function:
```
// Returns the true field type for this field.
upb_FieldType upb_MiniTableField_Type(const upb_MiniTable_Field* f);
```
This will provide the actual field type for this field.
Note that this CL changes the MiniDescriptor format. Previously MiniDescriptors did not contain enough information to distinguish between Enum/Int32. To remedy this we added a new encoded field type, `kUpb_EncodedType_ClosedEnum`.

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.

- Each def type has its own .c file and its own .h file
- Functions that require a builder context are declared in def_builder.h
- The mini descriptor encoders have also been pulled into upb/reflection/
- upb/def.h, upb/def.hpp, upb/reflection.h, and upb/reflection.hpp are now deprecated stubs that point to the new headers

Optimizes `upb_MiniTable_Enum` for enums with many values (>64) but with relatively dense packing in numeric space.
This CL optimizes both the size and speed of such enums:
- size: 30x code size reduction
- speed: moved from linear search to a constant-time bit test
Negative enum values are still expensive, as they are never put into the bitfield.

This is a naming change only, with no functional change. We did replace one inline function that had only one caller, but the net effect should be a no-op.
I did remove several `return` statements for calls to certain `noreturn` functions. These had no effect but were intended to improve readability. However the unused "return" caused ClangTidy to throw warnings, so these have been removed.
PiperOrigin-RevId: 472619191
delete upb_EnumDef_IsSorted()
We now have a simple internal function for returning a mini descriptor directly from an enum def.
