Bug#1114615: lintian: suggest 'Testsuite: autopkgtest-pkg-go' for any 'Section: golang' or golang-* package



Package: lintian
Severity: wishlist

Almost all Go packages comes with some reasonable self-tests, which are
invoked by debci via 'Testsuite: autopkgtest-pkg-go'.

What do you think about suggesting this header for any golang package?

Either use 'Section: golang' or source package name of golang-* as clue
of what is a Go package.

It could be a pedantic suggestion.  Maybe even more, I don't think there
are that many false positives where this would cause any breakage.
