Installation of the gpb and protobuffs mocks, in inttest, is now done
using copy in proto_{gpb,protobuffs}_rt:files/0. Previously, rebar
prepare-deps was used, the dependencies had an rsync source with a
relative path back to the inttest directory. This eliminates a
dependency in inttest to rsync, instead relying on retest's
functionality to copy files and directories. Also, it eliminates
hidden knowledge about the directory layout that retest chooses.
Idea and suggestion by Tuncer Ayaz.
Since the dependency sources in the inttest rebar.config files are no
longer used, they are now changed back from rsync paths to git urls,
to serve as examples.
In inttest/proto_gpb, replace the external dependency to gpb, a
protocol buffer compiler, with a simple mock.
The mock provides enough of what is needed for inttest only,
which is to generate some dummy content, but with proper file names.
As a result, the increased timeout for the proto_gpb inttest should no
longer be needed (inttest/proto_gpb/retest.config), both since the
mock is now much faster to compile, and since any network bandwidth or
connectivity issues have now been eliminated.

The bulk of these tests are written by Luis Rascão, hence he is the
author of this commit. As the committer, I have cherry-picked his two
commits 4c87bcd and ebb8182, from the feature/support_gpb_protobuf
branch in the git://github.com/lrascao/rebar repo, and have slightly
adapted it to fit this pluggable-proto-compilers-gpb branch.
