This change adds entries under volatile
paths - can the motivation.md doc be updated to reflect this name if it has been finalized?
right now the motivation.md doc makes references to dynamic
paths, see:

Yes -- #1 covers this change within the motivation.md
doc. I'll also put together a more succinct specification document once the design becomes more stable. I'm working on a reference implementation to make sure that we understand some of the nuances over at gSIIgo.
This PR makes an initial proposal for how the payload of gSII RPCs should look.
There are two cases that I think we need to consider:
For the OpenConfig case, ideally we would not generate new schemas, and be able to re-use existing schema components (and thus want to be able to write these components in YANG). This requires minor extension of the ygot toolchain to generate protobufs (see https://github.com/openconfig/ygot/compare/master...volatile where this change is made). The protos that are included herein use this approach.
The alternative is just to have hand-crafted protos as payload -- but this seems like it would be error prone in some cases.
The PR contains two generated protos:
