HADOOP-18487. Protobuf 2.5 removal part 2: stop exporting protobuf-2.5 (#6185)

Followup to the previous HADOOP-18487 patch: changes the scope of
protobuf-2.5 in hadoop-common and elsewhere from "compile" to "provided".

This means that protobuf-2.5 is
* No longer included in hadoop distributions
* No longer exported by hadoop common POM files
* No longer exported transitively by other hadoop modules.
* No longer listed in LICENSE-binary.
