Correct serialization of google::protobuf::Any

[tustvold]

From https://developers.google.com/protocol-buffers/docs/proto3#json

If the Any contains a value that has a special JSON mapping, it will be converted as follows: {"@type": xxx, "value": yyy}. Otherwise, the value will be converted into a JSON object, and the "@type" field will be inserted to indicate the actual data type.

Currently Any is not special cased and is therefore not serialized/deserialized to/from this custom representation. This should be fixed

For what it is worth, I hit this today as well

Here is an example which might help

pbjson produces:

  "ReadSource": {
    "typeUrl": "type.googleapis.com/com.github.influxdata.idpe.storage.read.ReadSource",
    "value": "COLy2v2h1bG1qwEQl/Gxk7nbhPmzAQ=="
  },

When the binary value in Any is decoded, it looks like

org_id: 12351903361995815266
bucket_id: 12966447011416799383

When I manually changed my pbjson to look like this

  "ReadSource": {
    "@type": "type.googleapis.com/influxdata.platform.storage.read.ReadSource",
    "orgId": "12351903361995815266",
    "bucketId": "12966447011416799383"
  },
...

Then grpcurl was able to handle it

Running into this issue as well with an api that sends the data with the "@type" and unpacked data in the rest of the body. Is there any ideas on how to fix this?
