## Issue
When an object that is an instance of a string-derived class is passed to a string field in a protobuf message in Ruby, it results in a `Google::Protobuf::TypeError`.
### Steps to reproduce
```rb
~/src/github.com/protocolbuffers/protobuf/ruby/tests ❯❯❯ irb -I .
irb(main):001:0> require 'basic_test_pb'
=> true
irb(main):002:0> myString = Class.new(String)
=> #<Class:0x00000001531540d8>
irb(main):003:0> str = myString.new("foo")
=> "foo"
irb(main):004:0> BasicTest::TestMessage.new(optional_string: "foo")
=> <BasicTest::TestMessage: optional_string: "foo", repeated_int32: [], repeated_int64: [], repeated_uint32: [], repeated_uint64: [], repeated_bool: [], repeated_float: [], repeated_double: [], repeated_string: [], repeated_bytes: [], repeated_msg: [], repeated_enum: []>
irb(main):005:0> BasicTest::TestMessage.new(optional_string: str)
(irb):5:in `initialize': Invalid argument for string field 'optional_string' (given #<Class:0x00000001531540d8>). (Google::Protobuf::TypeError)
irb(main):006:0>
```
## Fix
The issue appears to be caused by the field checking mechanism not properly handling instances of classes that inherit from basic types like String. My proposed solution is to improve the type checking for string fields to consider not just String instances but also instances of subclasses of String.
## Impact
The changes will allow instances of classes derived from String to be passed to string fields without any error.
This is a backwards-compatible change and will not affect the existing behaviour with standard String instances.

Rewrrte and extension of #12828, with additional work for JRuby. Partially fixes#1198 by adding support for custom options. Handling of extensions will be handled in a follow up.
Also includes these unrelated fixes:
* Removes code echo between `google/protobuf/repeated_field.rb` and `google/protobuf/ffi/repeated_field.rb` by `require`'ing the former in the latter.
* Adds missing calles to `testFrozen()` from methods of `RepeatedField` under JRuby that mutate.
* Various typos in comments.

This makes third_party/utf8_range no longer a Git subtree, but instead the
permanent location and source of truth for utf8_range. It is also now
incorporated into the @com_google_protobuf Bazel repo. Utf8_range still has its
own separate CMake build for now, though.
