Port FlatBuffers to Go.

Browse Source 
Implement code generation and runtime library for Go, derived from the
Java implementation. Additionally, the test suite verifies:

 - the exact bytes in the Builder buffer during object construction,
 - vtable deduplication, and
 - table construction, via a fuzzer derived from the C++ implementation.
