Previously we were using a mixture of old and new, with our code generation
using the plugin from the old github.com/golang/protobuf library but
our callers using the modern google.golang.org/protobuf . We were also
using pretty ancient version of protoc.
This brings us up to the current latest releases and consistently using
the new Go protobuf library. There have been some notable changes to these
tools in the meantime:
Previously the protoc-gen-go plugin handled grpc by having its own
additional level of Go-specific "plugins" of which the gRPC codegen was
an example.
Now the protobuf generator and the gRPC generator are separate plugins
handled directly by protoc, which means the command line arguments are
a different shape and the gRPC stubs get generated in a separate file
from the main protobuf messages, rather than all being in one .pb.go file
as before.The results are otherwise similar, though.
The grpc codegen now also defaults to requiring that implementations embed
the generated "unimplemented" server, which is an implementation of each
service where the methods just immediately return the "unimplemented"
error. This is not super important for us because we maintain the generated
interfaces and their implementations together in the same repository
anyway, but adding the "unimplemented" server embeds was not a big change
and so seems better to follow the prevailing convention.
Using these new versions means that we could in principle now switch to
using protobuf edition 2024 and the new "sealed" style for Go code
generation, but this commit does not include any such changes and focuses
only on getting things upgraded with as few other changes as possible. We
can discuss using different codegen style later and deal with that in
separate commits.

We have a few different .proto files in this repository that all need to
get recompiled into .pb.go files each time we change them, but we were
previously handling that with some scripts that just assumed that protoc
and the relevant plugins were already installed on the system somewhere,
at the right versions.
In practice we've been constantly flopping between different versions of
these tools due to folks having different versions installed in their
development environments. In particular, the state of the .pb.go files
in the prior commit wasn't reproducible by any single version of the tools
because they've all slightly diverged from one another.
In the interests of being more consistent here and avoiding accidental
inconsistencies, we'll now centralize the protocol buffer compile steps
all into a single tool that knows how to fetch and install the expected
versions of the various tools we need and then run those tools with the
right options to get a stable result.
If we want to upgrade to either a newer protoc or a newer protoc-gen-go
in future then we'll do that in a central location and update all of the
.pb.go files at the same time, so that we're always consistently tracking
the same version of protocol buffers everywhere.
While doing this I attempted to keep as close as possible to the toolchain
we'd most recently used, but since they were not consistent with each
other they've now all changed which version numbers they record at minimum,
and the planproto stub in particular now also has a slightly different
descriptor serialization but is otherwise offering the same API.
