- per comments on the main page: wire_format_inl.h is now
wire_format_lite_inl.h .. adjust somehow .. possibly write an email
- rpc protocol should not hardcode method_index (although it's fine
for API to do so)
- BUG? shouldn't enum..by_name[] and enum..by_number[] in the generated-code
be static??

- optimization: structures without repeated members could skip
the ScannedMember phase
- optimization: a way to ignore unknown-fields when unpacking
- optimization: certain functions are not well setup for WORDSIZE==64;
especially the int64 routines are inefficient that way.
The best might be an internal #define WORDSIZE (sizeof(long)*8)"
except w/ a real constant there, one that the preprocessor can use.
I think the functions in protobuf-c.c are already tagged.
