Scala Native Build

[dejvid]

Will there be a build with Scala native support? ScalaPB is already built for Scala native.

@dejvid For ScalaPB, I re-implemented a part of the Java protobuf runtime in Scala so it can be compiled using Scala native and Scala.js. zio-grpc is built on top of grpc-java which doesn't have a Scala implementation, and writing it would require quite a bit of effort. Potentially, it's possible to explore if the Scala native implementation can somehow interoperate with the C++ implementation of grpc. Happy to keep this feature request open for a while to check for demand and see if anyone is volunteering!

Okay, ScapaPB works on Scala native, just not the grpc-java. Because it is not written in Scala, what about the GRPC stuff that works on Scala.js? Could that part be used somehow?

If we want to run native-scala with gprc, and when multithreading starts working(scala native 0.5), the grpc feature is compelling to use.
