The Google C++ protobuf implementation has issues with dynamic linkage across DLL boundaries because it uses global variables. It also has a compile-time dependency because the protoc version must exactly match the libprotobuf version. Using nanopb with a customized generator fixes both of these issues.

This removes a build dependency on the quickbuf generator being available for the build platform.
It's safe to generate Java because the quickbuf version is defined by the project.
C++ protobufs can't be committed because the protoc version must
match the library version (this is a particular issue for cmake builds).
