Thrifty Versions Save

This release sees most of the compiler rewritten in Kotlin, and the addition of Kotlin codegen. A host of bugfixes and smaller features accompanies.

As the version number implies, this is an API-breaking update. Users of existing generated code shouldn't see any issues, but those building against the compiler's APIs (e.g. thrifty-schema) will find that they are broken.

BREAK:

• thrifty-schema extensively reworked into idiomatic Kotlin.
• ThriftException is now unchecked, and generated Adapters do not declare that they throw it.
• Deprecated Loader methods accepting java.io.File are removed.

Add:

• Kotlin codegen! Including both callback- and coroutine-based RPC clients.
• Java builders now have nullability annotations
• Java union fields are now @Nullable

Fix:

• FramedTransport now works properly for reads spanning more than one frame
• ClientBase now properly reads messageEnd
• Validation of double consts is fixed (thanks, @jparise)
• Codegen for map-of-enums fields is fixed (thanks, @jparise)
• Include-path scanning fixed when no individual .thrift files are given (thanks, @hzsweers)
