When loading packages from source, many files are being parsed
repeatedly, for example due to test variants. While the median number of
times a file gets parsed is 2, it is significantly higher (up to 28
times) when parsing the standard library, because of test variant
shenanigans.
By caching file contents and their parsed representations we can cut
down on processing time and garbage produced. When loading individual
packages or 3rd party projects, the effect is rather small. However when
loading the entire standard library, the effect is substantial.

This code fixes a bug when a user specifies NeedTypes, which

which causes typechecking to explode.
Also fix a similar issue where NeedImports isn't implicitly
fetched for NeedDeps.
I added a TODO for a better fix, which is to have an "implicitMode"
in the loader type containing all the data that's needed as a prerequisite
for other fields. Then we can use implicitMode when fetching data,
and cfg.Mode to clear out the fields the user didn't request.

`stamblerre/gocode`, which is the fork of `mdempsky/gocode` that supports Go 1.11 modules, uses `packages.Load` to load all of the Go code for, among other things, IDE autocomplete support. A common aspect to IDE autocomplete is asking for suggestions very frequently (perhaps at every character typed). Once the user has typed another character, the previous request for autocomplete is invalid and can be canceled.
`packages.Load` already stops its `go list` component if the context is canceled, but if the context is canceled afterward, then it will parse all of the files that it found. This change stops the parsing of Go files once it detects that the context has been canceled. When a file has not been processed due to cancelation, its error will be set to that of the context.
This change dramatically improves the performance of the `stamblerre/gocode` fork when requests have been canceled.

In the meantime, we use this simple workaround: if the GOARCH

to the conventions of gc. Otherwise, we use the architecture for which
the application was compiled. Both could easily be incorrect, but this

packages without an error, for instance for an empty expansion of a
valid wildcard. Errors associated with a particular package are
recorded in the corresponding Package's Errors list, and do not cause
Load to return an error.”
Therefore, it should not be an error for a pattern to match no
packages. If the pattern is a literal package path that does not
exist, we should prefer to return a *Package for it with an error in
the Errors field.

Pro:

Con:
- clients that want to print errors (e.g. vet-like tools) would have

- silence is not the most fail-safe behavior.

All the other members of raw package are stable for any given package,
DepOnly relates to the query patterns, not thepackages.
Instead the raw functions now return the set of roots matched
Other minor changes included:
rawConfig.ExtraFlags -> rawConfig.Flags
delete rawConfig.Context

We ask the underlying tool to produce export data if needed, but if it
cant we should fall back to source rather than just failing.

Add the Flags field to the Config struct in packages to provide a way
for users to pass along additional information to the underlying query
tool.
Since users that need Flags will already know something about the build
system they are using (and flags will vary depending on the underlying
build system), they can pass through the flags that they need for that
build system.
For example, build tags should be passed through using the Flags field in go build,
using "-tags=".

If a 'word' provided to go/packages' Load function starts with contains,
go/packages will interpret that word as the package containing the given
file.
For example:
packages.Load(config, "contains:/usr/local/go/src/fmt/format.go")
would load the fmt package from the Go installation at /usr/local/go.
This implementation uses "go list ." in the directory the file is
contained in to find the package, but this won't work in the module
cache. We plan to add support to go list directly to help find the
containing package. Then, because we won't need to change directory,
go list will have knowledge of the correct vgo root module, and will
be able to surface correct results.
