The option [ctype=CORD] may be applied to a non-repeated field of type
"bytes". It indicates that in C++, the data should be stored in a Cord
instead of a string. For very large strings, this may reduce memory
fragmentation. It may also allow better performance when parsing from a
Cord, or when parsing with aliasing enabled, as the parsed Cord may then
alias the original buffer.
