feat(speckl): protobuf backend + service block + record interface fields

- parser.ts: distinguish enum / record / service kinds in interface blocks
- parser.ts: add service { rpc X(R) returns (R); } syntax
- generators/protobuf.ts: emit proto3 (enums, messages, services) from .speckdl
- index.ts: add --target protobuf choice

Dogfood: FederatedMeetup.speckdl → 188-line .proto → buf generate →
working Go + ConnectRPC code with zero glue.

Closes speckl#61 (parser drops field declarations).

/**
* Generate Protocol Buffers (proto3) from a SpeckDL spec.
*
* This is the load-bearing backend for the "no glue code" claim:
* the .proto file emitted here is the canonical wire format. Run
* `buf generate` on the output to produce Go / TypeScript / Rust / C
* / Python / Java / etc. bindings — every gRPC and ConnectRPC ecosystem
* gets free bindings with zero hand-written converters.
*
* Mapping:
* event X { name: String, age: Nat } -> message X { string name = 1; uint64 age = 2; }
* interface T { Foo, Bar } -> enum T { T_FOO = 0; T_BAR = 1; }
* interface X { field: Type } -> message X { Type field = 1; }
* state: { foo: Type, bar: Type } -> message StateSnapshot { Type foo = 1; Type bar = 2; }
* service S { rpc M(R) returns (Rsp);} -> service S { rpc M(R) returns (Rsp); }
* constraint: ... -> comment in generated .proto
* verify: ... -> comment in generated .proto
* bom { ... } -> file-level metadata
*
* Deterministic: field numbering is alphabetical by field name, so the same
* .speckdl always produces the same .proto byte-for-byte. Matches Speckl's
* existing determinism claim.
