Description
We depend on grpc-rs which causes a big dent in our compile time, in particular due to grpc-sys. However, the only reason we depend on grpc-rs is for some high-level types. With a bit of refactoring, we could move those into a separate crate (grpc-types) and greatly reduce our compile time.

Research direction
Start by locating the grpc-rs and grpc-sys dependency declarations and the high-level types that require them; the issue names no specific files or tests. Map those types into the proposed grpc-types crate, then verify that grpc-rs is no longer needed and that the project still builds with the reduced dependency footprint.
