go/packages: add support for 'contains:' words

If a 'word' provided to go/packages' Load function starts with contains,
go/packages will interpret that word as the package containing the given
file.

For example:
   packages.Load(config, "contains:/usr/local/go/src/fmt/format.go")
would load the fmt package from the Go installation at /usr/local/go.

This implementation uses "go list ." in the directory the file is
contained in to find the package, but this won't work in the module
cache. We plan to add support to go list directly to help find the
containing package. Then, because we won't need to change directory,
go list will have knowledge of the correct vgo root module, and will
be able to surface correct results.

Go Tools

This subrepository holds the source for various packages and tools that support the Go programming language.

Some of the tools, godoc and vet for example, are included in binary Go distributions.

Others, including the Go guru and the test coverage tool, can be fetched with go get.

Packages include a type-checker for Go and an implementation of the Static Single Assignment form (SSA) representation for Go programs.

Download/Install

The easiest way to install is to run go get -u golang.org/x/tools/.... You can also manually git clone the repository to $GOPATH/src/golang.org/x/tools.
