Seebs 9f271467fb ingest cluster support
We add endpoints and protobuf encode/decode to allow for sending
sharded requests over the wire in protobuf, so we can take our
sharded data and send it to other nodes if needed.

This is a squash of >15 other commits, so a bit of history
is relevant:

The Request type had FieldTypes in it because the field type
information was needed for sharding because sorting requires
that information. We change this around to make the external
sharding operation require the field types, and curry that
through the codec -- the codec is needed to tell the request
how it shards. (This is because the correct sorting order
varies by field type.) Requests (and ShardedRequests) no
longer have that table in them.

And then we hit a nasty bug in production and RCA showed
that our testing wasn't good enough and we need to be more
careful, and I discovered that test coverage in this package
was around 70%.

So, the other big thing here is coverage testing; in order to
make coverage testing viable and programmatically testable,
we have added the ability to render requests *back* to
JSON. This is not a great idea, but it does allow us to do
a lot of sanity-checking and verify that the encodings we're
using are consistent and correct.

This, plus some specific tests of decoding specific flawed
inputs, has caught a number of issues. Which are now fixed!

A lot of internal API surface got slightly changed, in ways
that make it simpler to work with. For instance, the
(*FieldOperation).TranslateUnsigned function doesn't really
need to exist; we can just have a non-method translate
function for unsigned and for signed, and use them based on
field type.

The stable translation hack used for testing had a bug that
could allow it to end up producing incorrect results if you
asked it to translate an ID first rather than exclusively
asking it to translate strings first, this has been
corrected. (This is a bug fix in code that was added
partway through creating this, but is tricky enough to
mention its own comment.)

Test coverage is now just over 90%, and a lot of what's left
is error-check returns that may well be actually unreachable
unless, say, the documentation for encoding/json is full of
lies. Which it probably is.
