This is subtly different from a type annotation, since some bits of
metadata only make sense in the context of a single structure field,
like whether the field is required, or whether the C++ code should use
a pointer for it.
This change doesn't define any meaningful annotations. It just sets up
the parsing infrastructure.
I have no idea if $10 will work with older versions of yacc. It seems
to work fine with bison.

Adds syntax for attaching arbitrary key/value pairs to types.
These annotations can be accessed by individual generators to alter
the code they produce.
This version supports annotations on container types and structures.
