This separates the go list specific behavior from the generalised go/packages
loading behaviour, to enable alternate build system back ends.

If go list fails because it doesn't support the new flags added
for Go 1.11 (which will be also released in Go 1.10.4) try again
using the Loader to approximate the packages requested.
This implementation is incomplete. It will never support test packages
because of the two phase test loading process of the Loader. It
also doesn't reliably have access to export data so it will
always do an upgraded whole-program query. But we'll try to get
the best level of support we can for the go/packages interface
given the limitations of the loader.
Once Go 1.12 is released, we'll delete this support. By then, most
Go users should have at least switched to Go 1.10.4.
