This is in the effort to remove OwlBot from the standard repo path. A new package (bigtable-api) takes care of what OwlBot used to do (shuffle in new protos and generated gapic classes).

Code Review

This pull request refactors the codebase to depend on the external @google-cloud/bigtable-api package for API clients and proto definitions, allowing the removal of numerous auto-generated client files, configurations, and shims. Feedback on the changes highlights a critical issue in handwritten/bigtable/src/admin/table.ts where JSON_PROTOS is read as a raw string using fs.readFileSync instead of being parsed as a JSON object, which will cause runtime failures in protobufFromJSON. A suggestion is provided to use require to synchronously load and parse the JSON file directly.
