Adds a Kaitai Struct definition for the WPILOG format. This can be used to generate code to read/write data log files without needing to build out a parser/serializer by hand. Or just an additional resource for readers to help understand the WPILOG format.
Currently the major DataLog backend API (reading and writing) is split between wpiutil and glass. In the interest of allowing code that wants to use these APIs to not need to link to glass and declutter wpiutil, all of those APIs are moved to a new library named "datalog".

This adds support for two serialization formats for complex data types:
- Protobuf for complex objects with variable length internals that need forward and backward wire compatibility (lower speed, more flexible)
- Raw struct (ByteBuffer-style) for fixed-length objects (higher speed, less flexible)
Deserialization can be done either by creating a new object (for immutable objects) or overwriting the contents of an existing object (for mutable objects).
Implementing classes should provide inner classes that implement the Protobuf or Struct interface (in Java) or specialize the wpi::Protobuf or wpi::Struct struct (in C++). It is possible for classes to implement both. If the class itself does not implement serialization, it's possible for third parties/users to provide an implementation instead.
Uses the Google protobuf implementation for C++ and the QuickBuffers alternative protobuf implementation for Java.
