Buffa descriptor pool now rejects malformed enums and reserved fields

By RepoJournal · Filed · About Anthropic

Buffa's DescriptorPool tightened validation across five PRs, rejecting duplicate enum numbers, reserved names, invalid open-enum starts, and message-reserved overlaps.

Separately, `reflect` gains `shared_descriptor_pool_root`, an external path override for shared-pool mode. Previously, shared-pool mode assumed one crate hosting all proto packages as nested modules, so `super::` reached the shared `__buffa_fds` root; workspaces that generate one independent crate per proto package had no module tree to climb. The new override lets those crates point to the shared root explicitly [5].
