[protobuf] Scoping in definitions

[Tim Richardson]

Hi, just wanted to check my declaration with you guys, is it possible to 
reuse the `Study` declaration in the `Denormalised` 

package mypackage;


message Dataset {
  required string accession = 1;
  required string url_self = 2;
  optional string title = 3;
  optional string description = 4;
  repeated TechnologyType technology = 5;
  optional int32 samples = 6;
  optional string type = 7;
  repeated StudyId studies = 8;


  message StudyId {
    required string accession = 1;
  }
  message TechnologyType {
    required string type = 1;
  }
}


message Study {
  required string accession = 1;
  required string url_self = 2;
  optional string title = 3;
  optional string description = 4;
  optional string alternative_stable_id = 5;
  repeated StudyType type = 6;
  repeated DatasetId datasets = 7;


  message DatasetId {
    required string accession = 1;
  }
  message StudyType {
    required string type = 1;
  }
}


message Denormalised {
  required string accession = 1;
  required string url_self = 2;
  required string title = 3;
  required string description = 4;
  repeated TechnologyType technology = 5;
  optional int32 samples = 6;
  optional string type = 7;
  repeated Study studies = 8; // do I have to redeclare Study


  message TechnologyType {
    required string type = 1;
  }
}
