Bug#964590: RFP: golang-goipp -- IPP core protocol implementation

[Roger Shimizu <rogershimizu@gmail.com>]

Dear Didier,

For go, it's quite straightforward, since there's a tool called dh-make-golang.
I pushed the gits to salsa:
- https://salsa.debian.org/go-team/packages/golang-github-openprinting-goipp

Help yourself with the rest.

Cheers,
Roger
