[Buildroot] [PATCH] package/golang: new package

[Yann E. MORIN]

Christian, all,

But Thomas is right: we're not doing it for other packages, even if they
have the same requirements.

In fact, Buildroot only guarantees everything is perfect when building
from scratch. Any cycle of build-modify-build has never been guaranteed
to produce the same results as just the last build alone would give.

So, I concur with Thomas: we need not ensre cleanliness, and should
assume that directory is clean. Hence there's no reason to remove it
beforehand.

Regards,
Yann E. MORIN.
