Kotlinx Serialization Multiplatform Protobuf Generator

[marcoferrer]

This is the tracking issue for #13
Originally work on this feature was blocked due to a bug with the @SerialInfo annotation in the kotlin serialization native runtime. It looks like the bug is addressed in versions 0.10.0-eap-1 and 1.3.20-eap-52 with an expected release in 1.3.20

Just as a heads up, I have another library that does this at https://github.com/cretz/pb-and-k. Just figured I'd toss it out there though I understand reasons for sticking with Kotlinx.

I was actually interested in adding support for your library as a serialization format for the grpc service generation. I needed to get some time to look into it. Providing support for kotlinx was something I wanted to do for a while, so this was just me following through with it.

Development of pb-and-k has been slowed down due to the original developer having limited time. Therefore I think MP support for this project is something many would like.

This is true...apologies, much of my day job has shifted away from Kotlin.

We're past 1.3.20 \o/

Was there already work done on the kotlinx integration? @marcoferrer
