New attribute:
- `id: n` (on a table field): manually set the field identifier to `n`.
If you use this attribute, you must use it on ALL fields of this table,
and the numbers must be a contiguous range from 0 onwards.
Additionally, since a union type effectively adds two fields, its
id must be that of the second field (the first field is the type
field and not explicitly declared in the schema).
For example, if the last field before the union field had id 6,
the union field should have id 8, and the unions type field will
implicitly be 7.
IDs allow the fields to be placed in any order in the schema.
When a new field is added to the schema is must use the next available ID.

FlatBuffers Version 1.0
Welcome to FlatBuffers!
FlatBuffers is a serialization library for games and other memory constrained apps. Go to our landing page to browse our documentation.
FlatBuffers allows you to directly access serialized data without
unpacking/parsing it first, while still having great forwards/backwards
compatibility. FlatBuffers can be built for many different systems (Android,
Windows, OS X, Linux), see docs/html/index.html
Discuss FlatBuffers with other developers and users on the FlatBuffers Google Group. File issues on the FlatBuffers Issues Tracker or post your questions to stackoverflow.com with a mention of flatbuffers.
For applications on Google Play that integrate this tool, usage is tracked. This tracking is done automatically using the embedded version string (flatbuffer_version_string), and helps us continue to optimize it. Aside from consuming a few extra bytes in your application binary, it shouldn't affect your application at all. We use this information to let us know if FlatBuffers is useful and if we should continue to invest in it. Since this is open source, you are free to remove the version string but we would appreciate if you would leave it in.
