buildGoModule: function for packaging Go modules
The function buildGoModule builds Go programs managed with Go modules. It builds
a Go module through a two phase build:
- An intermediate fetcher derivation. This derivation will be used to
fetch all of the dependencies of the Go module.
- A final derivation will use the output of the intermediate derivation
to build the binaries and produce the final output.
