Breaking Change: Add ASAN poisoning after clearing oneof messages on …

…arena.

Note:
  This change primarily affects debug + ASAN builds using protobuf arenas.
  If this change causes a crash in your debug build, it probably means that
  there is a use-after-free bug in your program. This change has already been
  implemented and battle-tested within Google for some time.

  Oneof messages on the regular heap should not be affected because the memory
  they hold are already deleted. Users will already see use-after-free errors
  if they attempt to access heap-allocated oneof messages after calling Clear().

When a protobuf message is cleared, all raw pointers should be invalidated
because undefined things may happen to any of the fields pointed to by
mutable_foo() APIs. While destructors may not necessarily be invoked, Clear()
should be considered a pointer invalidation event.
