feat: Add support for Protobuf-generated libraries

Adds a 'buildGo.proto' function which takes a single .proto file as
its source and generates a corresponding Go library which can then be
imported.

'proto' takes these arguments (Yants-style type definition):

struct "protoArgs" {
  # required:
  name = string;
  proto = path;

  # optional:
  extraDeps = list goLib; # defaults to [ ]
  protocFlags = option string;
}

Note that proto libraries will automatically have dependencies for the
required protobuf Go libraries added to them.

gRPC is not (yet) supported.
