VOL-1460 Updated core to use voltha-protos instead of local protos
Moved protos to python directory in order to maintain functionaly of containers built there.
Added capability to do local builds of protos
Added instructions on running dep ensure for getting protos.
Updated github.com/golang/protobuf version to v1.3.1
