This is something the format supports, but none of the builders
were doing. Can save 10-20% on FlatBuffer binary size!
Also fixed the Go tests.

Zero offsets are non-sensical in FlatBuffers (since offsets are
relative to themselves) but were allowed by the verifier. This could
cause buffers made up of all zeroes to be interpreted as correct
buffers with an empty root object.
Generally, not allowing such offsets will make the verifier more
likely to catch problems earlier.

(C++ only for now).
Also fixed vector of union support in the object API.

Helps simplify code generation code. Instead of this:
code += "inline const " + cpp_qualified_name + " *Get";
code += name;
code += "(const void *buf) {\n return flatbuffers::GetRoot<";
code += cpp_qualified_name + ">(buf);\n}\n\n";
You do this:
code.SetValue("NAME", struct_def.name);
code.SetValue("CPP_NAME", cpp_qualified_name);
code += "inline const {{CPP_NAME}} *Get{{NAME}}(const void *buf) {";
code += " return flatbuffers::GetRoot<{{CPP_NAME}}>(buf);";
code += "}";
code += "";
Updated the CPP code generator to use the CodeWriter class. Most of the
changes in the generated code are white-space changes, esp. around new
lines (since the code generator class automatically appends new lines
when appending a string). Actual code changes include:
* Renamed "rehasher" to "_rehasher" for consistency with other args in
Pack function.
* Renamed "union_obj" to "obj: in UnPack function.
* Always do "(void)_o;" to prevent unused variable warning in Create
function (instead of only doing it if there are no fields) in order
to avoid two-passes.
* Renamed padding variables from __paddingX to paddingX__.
"Each name that contains a double underscore (_ _) [...] is reserved
to the implementation for any use." C++ standards 17.4.3.1.2.
* Add braces around switch cases.
* Calculate index as a separate statement in EnumName function, eg.
const size_t index = ...;
return EnumNamesX()[index];
vs.
return EnumNamesX()[...];
* Stored end table offset in variable in Finish() functions, eg.
const auto end = fbb_.EndTable(start_, ...);
auto o = flatbuffers::Offset<T>(end);
vs.
auto o = flatbuffers::Offset<T>(fbb_.EndTable(start, ...));
* Separate reinterpret_cast calls from function calls in Union
functions, eg.
auto ptr = reinterpret_cast<const T *>(obj);
return ptr->UnPack(resolver);
vs.
return reinterpret_cast<const T *>(obj)->UnPack(resolver);
* Removed unecessary (void)(padding__X) no-ops from constructors, eg.
Test(int16_t a, int8_t b) : ... {
(void)__padding0; // <-- Removed this line.
}
In the idl_gen_cpp.cpp file itself, I refactored some code generation into
new functions: GenParam, GenNativeTable, GenVerifyCall, GenBuilders,
GenUnpackFieldStatement, and GenCreateParam.

- Update to be const-correct where possible.
- Consistently pass |code| as pointer instead of non-const-ref.
- No newlines (\n) characters in the middle of code strings.
- Use if-else if-else statements instead of nested ternary operators.
- Ensure all lines end at 80 chars.
- Make utility functions static.

They were overloaded, but also had default arguments, so would
become ambiguous when used with few arguments.
