go/packages: add a work around for go list behavior for missing ad-hoc package

If a file in an ad-hoc package doesn't exist, go list should exit 0 and
return an dummy package with an error set on it. Since it doesn't do that
yet, add a work-around.

Updates golang/go#29280

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.
