The very non-trivial upgrade of third_party/protobuf to 22.x
This PR strives to be as small as possible and many changes that were
compatible with protobuf 21.x and didn't have to be merged atomically
with the upgrade were already merged.
Due to the complexity of the upgrade, this PR wasn't created
automatically by a tool, but manually. Subsequent upgraded of
third_party/protobuf with our OSS release script should work again once
this change is merged.
This is best reviewed commit-by-commit, I tried to group changes in
logical areas.
Notable changes:
- the upgrade of third_party/protobuf submodule, the bazel protobuf
dependency itself
- upgrade of UPB dependency to 22.x (in the past, we used to always
upgrade upb to "main", but upb now has release branch as well). UPB
needs to be upgraded atomically with protobuf since there's a de-facto
circular dependency (new protobuf depends on new upb, which depends on
new protobuf for codegen).
- some protobuf and upb bazel rules are now aliases, so `
extract_metadata_from_bazel_xml.py` and `gen_upb_api_from_bazel_xml.py`
had to be modified to be able to follow aliases and reach the actual
aliased targets.
- some protobuf public headers were renamed, so especially
`src/compiler` needed to be updated to use the new headers.
- protobuf and upb now both depend on utf8_range project, so since we
bundle upb with grpc in some languages, we now have to bundle utf8_range
as well (hence changes in build for python, PHP, objC, cmake etc).
- protoc now depends on absl and utf8_range (previously protobuf had
absl dependency, but not for the codegen part), so python's
make_grpcio_tools.py required partial rewrite to be able to handle those
dependencies in the grpcio_tools build.
- many updates and fixes required for C++ distribtests (currently they
all pass, but we'll probably need to follow up, make protobuf's and
grpc's handling of dependencies more aligned and revisit the
distribtests)
- bunch of other changes mostly due to overhaul of protobuf's and upb's
internal build layout.
TODOs:
- [DONE] make sure IWYU and clang_tidy_code pass
- create a list of followups (e.g. work to reenable the few tests I had
to disable and to remove workaround I had to use)
- [DONE in cl/523706129] figure out problem(s) with internal import

The switch to grpc-win2019 windows workers has already happened:
(cl/517400022).
Once this PR lands, I'll backport to 1.53.x branch as well (since that
release removes the VS2017 support).
Fix incompatibilities identified when running adhoc runs on the new
custom win2019 image.
After merging this, it should be possible to switch to the new image
without breaking any tests.
- for most fixes I added a comment that explains why they're necessary.
- the new image won't have VS2015 installed, so I'm switching the protoc
artifact build to VS2017
This PR will need to be backported to older release branches to ensure
the windows tests continue working on those branches as well (IMHO I
haven't made any changes that would be difficult to backport and I tried
to keeps the diff as small as possible to avoid issues when
backporting).
After we switch to the new image (and all the windows tests are green),
we can incrementally move the builds that are still using VS2017 to
VS2019.

We have to give cmake the explicit zlib location as the internal testing
environment has C:/msys64/usr/bin in the PATH and zlib-devel installed.
cmake has heuristics in find_package which sees this /bin suffix in PATH
and adds C:/msys64/usr/ to the find_package search locations. Doing a
find_package(zlib) in this environment makes the find module for it (FindZLIB)
find the header zlib.h in C:/msys64/usr/include while the library will still
be taken from the testinstall location masking the issue in the log. To satisfy
the dependency cmake adds C:/msys64/usr/include as an include directory. This
makes cl.exe build with mixed C and C++ standard lib headers breaking the
build.
This issue was previously masked by cmake writing absolute paths for zlib and
other dependencies into the grpc cmake exports.
