The protobuf-based RPC calls are meant for communication between Gluster processes
like bricks, Gluster daemons and GlusterD. This will _not_ be used between REST services
and clients. Also, this RPC mechanism is _not_ going to replace the XDR/SunRPC being used
between clients and brick processes.

Github issues work best.
