=all #13783 replace protobuf dependency by embedded version

- created new subproject akka-protobuf (and added COPYING and LICENSE)
- renamed com.google.protobuf -> akka.protobuf everywhere
- also added such renaming step to the results of protoc compilation in
  project/Protobuf.scala
- had to include transcriptions of Netty’s ProtobufEncoder/Decoder to
  make multi-node-testkit compile again

akka-protobuf/src/main/java/akka/protobuf/RpcChannel.java

+/**
+ * <p>Abstract interface for an RPC channel.  An {@code RpcChannel} represents a
+ * communication line to a {@link Service} which can be used to call that
+ * {@link Service}'s methods.  The {@link Service} may be running on another
+ * machine.  Normally, you should not call an {@code RpcChannel} directly, but
+ * instead construct a stub {@link Service} wrapping it.  Example:
+ *
+ * <pre>
+ *   RpcChannel channel = rpcImpl.newChannel("remotehost.example.com:1234");
+ *   RpcController controller = rpcImpl.newController();
+ *   MyService service = MyService.newStub(channel);
+ *   service.myMethod(controller, request, callback);
+ * </pre>
+ *
+ * <p>Starting with version 2.3.0, RPC implementations should not try to build
+ * on this, but should instead provide code generator plugins which generate
+ * code specific to the particular RPC implementation.  This way the generated
+ * code can be more appropriate for the implementation in use and can avoid
+ * unnecessary layers of indirection.
+ *

+   * request may be of any type as long as
+   * {@code request.getDescriptor() == method.getInputType()}.
