✨ New exporter: go

[sschleemilch]

Added new generator: go

It does produce structs to work with the vss tree.

It only produces simple structs for now. In future, we can also generate get/set methods and use the allowed as well as min/max fields.

Could you possibly add a README in https://github.com/COVESA/vss-tools/tree/master/docs that gives a bit on background and how the tool can be used or is intended to be used. Like linking to https://go.dev/ as possible not every one is familiar with Go.

We use Go in https://github.com/COVESA/vissr and I am curious if what we have here could be a replacement to the "binary" format currently used by that tool. ideas @UlfBj ?

Lets not merge it yet. I would like to make some improvements.

MoM:

• Erik: Not planned for 5.0
• Ulf: Did a quick review, this one generates structs, slightly different scope compared to binary format, which is language agnostic, so not a replacement for binary
• Erik: Good if @UlfBj checks that code follows "good Go practice"
• Ulf: I can do it
• Please review

[UlfBj]

It looks good to me.

MoM: Ok to merge
