Generate Protobuf Go Files

Make sure opamp-go/internal/opamp-spec submodule files exist. You can do this either by cloning the opamp-go repo with submodules the first time, e.g. git clone --recurse-submodules git@github.com:open-telemetry/opamp-go.git. Alternatively, if you already cloned opamp-go without the submodule then execute git submodule update --init to fetch all files for opamp-spec submodule. Note that opamp-spec submodule requires ssh git cloning access to github and won't work if you only have https access.
Make sure you have Docker installed and running.
Run make gen-proto. This should compile internal/proto/*.proto files to internal/protobufs/*.pb.go files.

Note that this is tested on linux/amd64 and darwin/amd64 and is known to not work on darwin/arm64 (M1/M2 Macs). Fixes are welcome.
