Link the option definitions into your plugin, and when parsing
CodeGeneratorRequest in your plugin, use an ExtensionRegistry with all
option definitions registered. After that you should be able to get
FileDescriptorProtos with option values.

To get FileDescriptor, you will need to call FileDescriptor.buildFile()
yourself.
