Modifications to protobuf definitions/compiling

This forked repo makes a couple of additions to the original project with the compilation instructions to generate the protocol buffer definitions, and the inclusion of the go_package option in the protobuf service definition:

• Command to run at terminal in the ./shippy/shippy-service-consignment directory: protoc --go_out=plugins=grpc:. --go_opt=paths=source_relative proto/consignment/consignment.proto
• In consignment.proto: option go_package = "github.com/jasonsalas/shippy/shippy-service-consignment";
