 * For example, an extension field defined like so:

 *     extend BaseMessage {
 *       optional MyMessage my_field = 123;
 *     }
 *
 * will result in an ExtensionFieldInfo object with these properties:

 *       fieldName: {my_field_renamed: 0},
 *       ctor: proto.example.MyMessage,
 *       toObjectFn: proto.example.MyMessage.toObject,
 *       isRepeated: 0
 *     }
 *
 * We include `toObjectFn` to allow the JSCompiler to perform dead-code removal
 * on unused toObject() methods.
 *
 * If an extension field is primitive, ctor and toObjectFn will be null.
 * isRepeated should be 0 or 1.
