Description

# Summary

We need to replace gogoprotobuf dependencies with some other tool. The reason we need to do this is because this package is deprecated.
See [this](https://github.com/gogo/protobuf/issues/691)

List of alarming bugs:
[Invalid Type](https://github.com/gogo/protobuf/issues/755)
[OOM](https://github.com/gogo/protobuf/issues/754)
[Invalid Type (Possibly related to previous)](https://github.com/gogo/protobuf/issues/750)
[Memory Leak](https://github.com/gogo/protobuf/issues/726)
[Index out of range](https://github.com/gogo/protobuf/issues/720)
[Bad Performance for growslice?](https://github.com/gogo/protobuf/issues/708)

~This is going to be a herculean effort to migrate off, unfortunately.~
