Few things going on in this commit:
Do not print "Building subPakage $pkg" message if actually going to skip the
package. This was confusing to me when I was trying to figure out how to set
excludedPackages and seeing the "Building subpackage $pkg" messages for
packages I wanted to skip. Turns out this messages was being printed before
checking if we actually wanted to build the package and not necessarily that my
excludedPackages was wrong.
Make go-packages look a little bit more like go-modules, by adding testdata to
the default list of excluded packages.
This commit also does some setup outside the buildGoDir function so that we
avoid checking `excludedPackages` for every package and cut down the number
of grep calls by half since we always want at least one grep for the default
excludedPackages, might as well just add to the patterns being checked.
Finally, adds documentation for usage of excludedPackages and subPackages. I
had to read the implementation to figure out how to correctly use these
function arguments since there was no documentation and different uses in the
code base. So this commit documents usage of the arguments.
Simpler method of setting tags rather than using some combination of buildFlags, buildFlagsArray, preBuild, etc
Using `lib.concatStringsSep ","` as space separated tags are deprecated in go.
Previously it was not possible to define multiple ldflags, since only
the last definition applies, and there's some quoting issues with
`buildFlagsArray`. With the new `ldflags` argument it's possible to do
this, e.g.
ldflags = drv.ldflags or [] ++ [
"-X main.Version=1.0"
]
can now properly append a flag without clearing all previous ldflags.
this takes care of the following folders in pkgs/development:
* arduino
* chez-modules
* go-packages
* guile-modules
* idris-modules
* perl-modules
* r-modules
* ruby-modules
Go 1.13 slightly changed the behavior GO111MODULE=auto [1], which might
accidentally cause the go command to build the module, for instance in
the checkPhase:
[GO111MODULE=auto] activates the module-aware mode of the go command
whenever the current working directory contains, or is below a
directory containing, a go.mod file — even if the current directory
is within GOPATH/src.

In Nix, each string has a context that it carries of where it
originated. Some functions like filterAttrs modify the context of its
args when doing comparisons. That is important because we use the
string context of “name” to get where a derivation was defined. This
causes some builtins like unsafeGetAttrPos to report incorrectly that
the string was set in lib/attrsets.nix and reporting that as the
source file. Using removeAttrs avoids this problem.
Fixes#63679
This change moves buildGoPackage from pkgs/development/go-modules to
pkgs/development/go-packages, so we can have buildGoModule at
pkgs/development/go-modules.
