Add support for recursive messages (#130)
Changes message initialization (`__post_init__`) so that default values
are no longer eagerly created to prevent infinite recursion when
initializing recursive messages.

As a result, `PLACEHOLDER` will be present in the message for any
uninitialized fields.  So, an implementation of `__get_attribute__` is
added that checks for `PLACEHOLDER` and lazily creates and stores
default field values.

And, because `PLACEHOLDER` values don't compare equal with zero values,
a custom implementation of `__eq__` is provided, and the code generation
template is updated so that messages generate with `@dataclass(eq=False)`.

Also add new Message __repr__ implementation that skips PLACEHOLDER 
values and orders keys by number from the proto.
