Fixes #407 and #1700 - google.api.http path parameter constraints and multiple HTTP path/method endpoint support

+   with the only difference being constraints on the path parameter.
+
+   `/v1/{name=projects/*}` and `/v1/{name=organizations/*}` both become `/v1/{name}`.  When 
+   this occurs the plugin will rename the path parameter with a "_1" (or "_2" etc) suffix
+   to differentiate the different operations. So in the above example, the 2nd path would become
+   `/v1/{name_1=organizations/*}`.  This can also cause OpenAPI clients to URL encode the "/" that is
+   part of the path parameter as that is what OpenAPI defines in the specification.  To allow gRPC gateway to  
+   accept the URL encoded slash and still route the request, use the UnescapingModeAllCharacters or  
+   UnescapingModeLegacy (which is the default currently). See
