Investigate moving off of direct google::protobuf types

When running fix_format script, it complains:

Please note: `tools/code_format/check_format.py` no longer checks API `.proto` files, please use `tools/proto_format/proto_format.sh` if you are making changes to the API files

For now, we are excluding all of Nighthawk from this check. Can we fix this without making a backwards incompatible change?
