Allocation decision is now made before the field data type is decided.
This way the data type decisions can more cleanly account for the allocation
type, i.e. FT_DEFAULT logic etc.
Added pb_bytes_ptr_t for pointer-allocated bytes-fields. There is no point
generating separate structs for these, as they would all be of the same type.
These have been deprecated since nanopb-0.1.6 (some since 0.1.3).
Equivalent functions with better interface are available in the API.

This allows building the tests easily on Visual C++ in C mode.
Also add checks to pb.h that the defined integer types are of
the proper sizes. This may prevent some difficult to debug problems
later..
Previously the generator would stop with NotImplementedException as
soon as a required or repeated extension field is found. New behaviour
is to just ignore the unsupported field and note that in a comment
in the generated file.
Furthermore, allow skipping of extension fields using the generator
option (nanopb).type = FT_IGNORE.

If the null terminator is not present, string will be limited to the
data size of the field.
If you are still using the pb_enc_string (deprecated since 0.1.3) from
callbacks, now would be an excellent time to stop. The pb_field_t for
the callback will not contain proper data_size. Use pb_encode_string()
instead.
Update issue 68
Status: FixedInGit
NOTE: This change breaks backwards-compatibility by default.
If you have old callback functions, you can define PB_OLD_CALLBACK_STYLE
to retain the old behaviour.
If you want to convert your old callbacks to new signature, you need
to do the following:
1) Change decode callback argument to void **arg
and encode callback argument to void * const *arg.
2) Change any reference to arg into *arg.
The rationale for making the new behaviour the default is that it
simplifies the common case of "allocate some memory in decode callback".
Update issue 69
Status: FixedInGit
This is a more logical name in parallel with PB_HTYPE_REQUIRED and PB_HTYPE_OPTIONAL.
Warning: This breaks backwards-compatibility of generated .pb.c files.
You will have to regenerate the files and recompile.
