The following changes have been made to the C++ codegen to enable writing generic code
that uses the Table and NativeTable types.
- Adds TableType and NativeTableType typedefs to NativeTable and Table structs.
- Adds GetFullyQualifiedName() to NativeTables if --gen-name-strings is set.
- Adds a static Pack function to Tables that simply calls the global CreateX functions.
See cr/140391505 as an example of improved usage.

Introduce a "native_inline" attribute that can be applied on fields that are structs.
This results in NativeTable code generation that sets the struct "inline" rather than
storing it in a pointer.

This allows hashed string fields to be used for lookup of any
C++ objects, a pointer to which are then stored in the object
besides the original hash for easy access.

* Generate type traits for unions to map a type to the corresponding union enum value.
* Fixed break with union enum type traits when type is in a namespace.
* Fixed spacing and variable names in type traits generation to match style guidelines.
* Fixed spacing in type traits generation to match style guidelines.
* Regenerated test schema header.
They were overloaded, but also had default arguments, so would
become ambiguous when used with few arguments.

This is useful because many JSON generators will sort the fields,
cause X_type to follow X.

Bug: 29221752
To support the use case described in issue google/flatbuffers#3826, a new command line option --gen-name-strings
has been added, which will cause a static GetFullyQualifiedName function to be added
to the C++ output for tables/structs.
The code generator was assuming all declarations for the current
file sit in the same namepace. Now uses the "on demand" namespace
switching we had for the forward declarations.
Also fixed a bug related to namespace lookup.
