New branch for removing gogo/protobuf

[kzys]

I've been working on upgrading protobuf packages in containerd. Now Protobuild supports new protoc-gen-go and #96 will add new protoc-gen-go-ttrpc which should be able to generate ttrpc code that works with the new protoc-gen-go.

However, next few PRs will make some backward-incompatible changes, namely

• Removing gogo/protobuf from ttrpc itself
• Updating example/

Since ttrpc is used by containerd which has relatively long support policy, we would make some enhancements such as #75 and #94. So I'm reluctant to make ttrpc's main branch incompatible with gogo/protobuf right now.

Instead, could we have a branch to remove gogo/protobuf? If so, do we want to do Go-style branching (e.g. v2) instead of containerd-style (release/1.0)?

I think a release/1.0 branch is reasonable. This is what we have done in other dependent projects as well

Sounds good to me. Let me clean up open PRs. I'd like to merge 1.0.x enhancements before cutting the branch.

Should this be closed?
