    cmd/vet: switch to x/tools/go/analysis implementation · cb413099
    Alan Donovan authored
    This change deletes the legacy implementation of vet, replacing it
    with a short main.go that merely selects the desired analyzers and
    calls into the "unitchecker" implementation vendored from
    golang.org/x/tools/go/analysis.
    
    Unlike the full vet checker (x/tools/go/analysis/cmd/vet), the 'lite'
    unitchecker cannot also be run standalone (as 'go tool vet' or
    cmd/vet); it must be invoked by 'go vet'.
    This design was chosen to avoid vendoring many
    additional dependencies into GOROOT, in particular go/packages. If
    go/packages should someday become part of the standard library, there
    will be considerable opportunity for simplification.
    
    This change also patches the vendored analysisflag package
    (by adding patch.go) so that it fully supports the build
    system's -V flag protocol.
    
    Also:
    - remove stale internal/unitchecker/ tree
      (belonged in https://go-review.googlesource.com/c/149778).
    - move vet legacy flags (-all, -v, -source, -tags) into analysisflags
      as all drivers will need them, not just unitchecker.
      I will upstream this change.
    
    A sampling of tests from the cmd/vet testsuite have been preserved as
    a smoke test, to ensure that each analyzer is being run, and for
    convenience when evaluating changes. Comprehensive tests for each
    analyzer live upstream in x/tools. The tests have been heavily reduced
    and reorganized so that they conform to the structure required by 'go
    vet'.
