   Thank you, @wgtmac and @guiyanakuang .
   
   To start and maintain `Apache ORC Format 1.0.0` in the official 
ProtocolBuffer way, this is the minimum required change due to the following.
   - https://github.com/apache/orc-format/pull/5
   
   As we know, `ProtocolBuffers` is a safe protocol for field renaming in terms 
of binary compatibility. So, Apache ORC 1.x libraries (Java/C++) can read and 
write `ORC Format v1.0` files without any problems. However, the generated C++ 
code and dump meta info is different like we see in this PR.
   
   The new C++ API and dump meta data follows an official ProtocolBuffers 
recommendation. So, I believe we can help and persuade the down-streams like 
Apache Arrow easily without many blockers.
