build-system/go: Build with a filesystem union of Go dependencies.
This basically changes (guix build-system go) so that instead of looking up its dependencies in a list of directories in $GOPATH, all the Go dependencies are symlinked into a single directory. Fixes <https://bugs.gnu.org/33620>. * guix/build/go-build-system.scm (setup-go-environment): New variable. (setup-environment, install-source): Remove variables. (unpack): Unpack the source relative to $GOPATH. (install): Do not install the compiled objects in the 'pkg' directory. Install the source code in this phase, and only install the source of the package named by IMPORT-PATH. * doc/guix.texi (Build Systems): Adjust accordingly. * gnu/packages/docker.scm (docker): Import (guix build union) on the build side and adjust to build phase name changes in (guix build-system go). * gnu/packages/shellutils.scm (direnv): Likewise. * gnu/packages/databases.scm (mongo-tools)[arguments]: Set '#:install-source #f'. * gnu/packages/music.scm (demlo)[arguments]: Move the 'install-scripts' phase after the 'install' phase.
