There's already github.com/fullsailor/pkcs7 of which the go.mozilla
package is a fork.
Is it impossible to replace the go.mozilla pkcs7 with the former in the
package?

If yes, that should be done. I do not see a lot of point (or any point) in packaging
forks unless very essential.
As an example, it has been done here[1] so if you can do
so, make some tweaks and check, that'd be good.

If it does not work, maybe it'd be better to add missing
functionalitites as a debian patch to  github.com/fullsailor/pkcs7
provided it isn't too hard to maintain

I'd be motivated to upload golang-mozilla-pkcs7 only if we completely
run out of options
