// This is proto2's version of MessageSet.  See go/messageset to learn what
// MessageSets are and how they are used.
//
// In proto2, we implement MessageSet in terms of extensions, except with a
// special wire format for backwards-compatibility.  To define a message that
// goes in a MessageSet in proto2, you must declare within that message's
// scope an extension of MessageSet named "message_set_extension" and with
// the field number matching the type ID.  So, for example, this proto1 code:
//   message Foo {
//     enum TypeId { MESSAGE_TYPE_ID = 1234; }
//   }
// becomes this proto2 code:
//   message Foo {
//     extend google.protobuf.bridge.MessageSet {
//       optional Foo message_set_extension = 1234;
//     }
//   }
//
// Now you can use the usual proto2 extensions accessors to access this
// message.  For example, the proto1 code:
//   MessageSet mset;
//   Foo* foo = mset.get_mutable<Foo>();
// becomes this proto2 code:
//   google::protobuf::bridge::MessageSet mset;
//   Foo* foo = mset.MutableExtension(Foo::message_set_extension);
//
// Of course, new code that doesn't have backwards-compatibility requirements
// should just use extensions themselves and not worry about MessageSet.
