Integrate Go plugin with build system. (#17005)

* Integrate Go plugin with build system. * Fix Debian packaging rules. * Add FreeBSD support to Go toolchain handling. * Add Go ldflags handling. * Fix version detection when GCCGO is used. * Fix Go ldflags handling. * Correctly fix Go toolchain version detection. * Properly mark Go as a required dependency in CMake. * Disable VCS stamping as it does not work correctly on some platforms. * Autodetect minimum required Go version from go.mod files. This allows us to avoid needing to update the CMakeLists.txt file when the required version changes in a Go component’s go.mod file. * Prefix GoTools module name with Netdata to ensure we get our local module. * Update integrations code to use new Go plugin location. * Remove old go packaging files. * keep old logic for initial cleanup that is working * Re-sync Go plugin sources. * Fix search order for finding Go toolchain. * update module name * fix /usr/local/go overwrite condition --------- Co-authored-by: Fotis Voutsas <fotis@netdata.cloud> Co-authored-by: ilyam8 <ilya@netdata.cloud>
