Jay Conrod a37bebc042 cmd/go: stamp VCS revision and uncommitted status into binaries
When the go command builds a binary, it will now stamp the current
revision from the local Git or Mercurial repository, and it will also
stamp whether there are uncommitted edited or untracked files. Only
Git and Mercurial are supported for now.

If no repository is found containing the current working directory
(where the go command was started), or if either the main package
directory or the containing module's root directory is outside the
repository, no VCS information will be stamped. If the VCS tool is
missing or returns an error, that error is reported on the main
package (hinting that -buildvcs may be disabled).

This change introduces the -buildvcs flag, which is enabled by
default. When disabled, VCS information won't be stamped when it would
be otherwise.

Stamped information may be read using 'go version -m file' or
debug.ReadBuildInfo.

For #37475

README

Files in this directory are data for Go's API checker ("go tool api", in src/cmd/api).

Each file is a list of API features, one per line.

go1.txt (and similarly named files) are frozen once a version has been
shipped. Each file adds new lines but does not remove any.

except.txt lists features that may disappear without breaking true
compatibility.

next.txt is the only file intended to be mutated. It's a list of
features that may be added to the next version. It only affects
warning output from the go api tool.
