This overflow could allow malformed FlatBuffers to pass the verifier.

Bug: 27903580
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.
Currently in order to get a value type of [ubyte] in PHP, iteration is
necessary which is not efficient. Helper __vector_as_bytes has been
implemented in order to return the byte arrays in PHP efficiently.
Appropriate methods also been added to use aforementioned method to return
the byte array. (e.g. get*Bytes()).
The reason the methods are named get*Bytes() and not for instance
get*ByteArray() is the fact that PHP doesn't support byte arrays and the
binary safe string implementation in PHP is used to simulate byte arrays
and since there is chance for PHP users to confuse this with PHP arrays
the name get*Bytes() has been chosen.
In the future __vector_as_bytebuffer() method can also be implemented to
return PHP implementation of ByteBuffer.
Certain architectures, such as ARM, use unsigned chars by default
so require the `-fsigned-char` for certain value comparisons to
make sense and in order to compile.
This is the first step in RPC support. Actual code generation
to follow.

Bug: 20122696
There was no way to pass an already-encoded string to
`builder.CreateString` in Python 2.7:
- Passing a `bytearray` raised a TypeError because `bytearray` was not
recognized as an instance of `compat.binary_type`.
- Passing a utf-8 encoded `str` would cause the string to be
double-encoded, because `compat.string_types = (basestring,)` and
`basestring` is the base class of `str` and `unicode`, so the logic
would never reach the `elif isinstance(s, compat.binary_type)` case.
- Converting a utf-8 encoded bytearray to `bytes` like
`builder.CreateString(bytes(encoded_string))` does not work because
in Python 2.7, bytes is just an alias for `str` so it behaves as
above.
This change allows either `bytes` or `bytearray` as an already-encoded
string to be passed to `CreateString` in versions of Python that support
`bytearray`, and falls back to `str` in older versions.
In Python 2, it restricts unencoded string types to `unicode`, so `str`
can be used as an encoded, binary representaiton.
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.
