go proto: include (opt-in) vtprotobuf generation (envoyproxy#31172)

See envoyproxy/go-control-plane#824 for more information

This PR adds the vtprotobuf protoc plugin for Go. This works on top of the existing protoc-gen-go, to add optimized marshal functions that callers can opt in to using. This is not like gogo, which was a very invasive change -- everything is layered and opt-in. See issue for benchmarks, etc.

Additionally, to avoid possible binary size increase, the entire new code is protected under a go build tag. Users will need to opt-in at build time (-tags=vtprotobuf). By default, there is no impact for users at all.

Risk Level: Low - only additional opt-in code
Testing: Manually tested in Istio codebase
