base: Avoid size limitation on protobuf coded streams
This patch changes how the streams are created to avoid the size
limitation on the coded streams. As we only read/write a single
message at a time, there is never any message larger than a few
bytes. However, the coded stream eventually complains that its
internal counter reaches 64+ MByte if the total file size exceeds this
value.
Based on suggestions in the protobuf discussion forums, the coded
stream is now created for every message that is read/written. The
result is that the internal byte count never goes about tens of bytes,
and we can read/write any size file that the underlying file I/O can
handle.
