Enable protobufs as storage format by default

**Release note**:

```release-note
Change default storage format to protobufs. With this PR apiserver will be writing objects serialized as protobufs to etcd. If the apiserver was upgraded in the existing clusters, until an object will be written, it will still be stored as JSON. Apiserver can deal with some data being in json and some in protobuf format as of 1.4 release.
