codec: proto2 groups (SGROUP/EGROUP wire format)
Plugin: detect protoreflect.GroupKind, emit kind='group' in the
field descriptor and a SGROUP opening tag in inline codegen. The
group body bypasses the LEN-prefix path entirely — encoder emits
start-tag, body bytes, end-tag in three slots; decoder calls
pb.codec.decode_group(desc, buf, pos, field_id) which reads inner
tags until the matching EGROUP id.
Wire layer already understood SGROUP/EGROUP for skip_field; the new
decode_group reuses the per-tag dispatch from decode_message but
stops on EGROUP instead of end-of-buffer. Repeated groups bracket
each element with its own SGROUP/EGROUP pair.
Runtime parser now desugars `optional|required|repeated group Name
= id { body }` into (a) a nested message named Name and (b) a
synthetic field of kind=group whose lowercased name is `name` — so
source-parsed proto2 schemas behave the same as build-time codegen.
Text format renders groups under the submessage's capitalized name
(`SingleGroup { ... }`) rather than the lowercase field name,
matching mainline protoc's convention.
Adds a vendored, MessageSet-stripped test_messages_proto2.proto in
test/conformance/proto/ (header comment documents the patch).
10 new luatest cases (group_*) cover singular + repeated + text +
descriptor kind, across both codegen modes. 739 tests pass.
runtime: parser + dynamic accept proto2 sources
Parser now captures `required=true` and `default_value=…` from the
proto2 keywords (instead of dropping `required` silently and ignoring
field options). Dynamic descriptor builder reads `parsed.syntax`,
flips the repeated-scalar packing default for proto2, and calls
`codec.compile_writers/compile_readers` so the per-field
required-writer specialization actually fires — without that the
generic encode_field path silently elides missing required fields.
64-bit-int defaults are coerced into the appropriate cdata type
inside `coerce_default` so the codec's value-comparison rules
match what generated code emits.
Adds 7 dynamic-mode luatest cases including a static-vs-dynamic
byte-parity check. 725 tests pass.
Initial commit: protoc-gen-tarantool plugin + pb runtime
A protoc plugin (Go) and a pure-Lua + LuaJIT-FFI runtime that give
Tarantool a complete proto3 + gRPC stack. Two codegen modes (full
inline / runtime descriptor), 226-test luatest suite, 18-fixture
mainline-protoc interop corpus, JSON codec, well-known types,
gRPC client/server factories, runtime .proto parser, microbench
harness with allocation regression gate.
Covers PLAN.md M1-M5. Module is `pb` (not `protobuf`) to avoid
colliding with Tarantool's built-in encode-only `protobuf` module.
