By avoiding the fmt import, we save some work: 'go test -run Script/tiny'
goes down from 0.8s to 0.5s even with a warm build cache.
Since the output changes between runs, we use stderr grep lines instead
of cmp. This way we can also check that the "oh noes" panic is entirely
hidden in the tiny mode.
In tiny.txt, we already check line numbers via stderr, so there's no
need to do that via -debugdir.
In syntax.txt, we only really care about what names remain in the
binary, not the names which remain in the source but don't affect the
binary.
These changes are important because -debugdir adds a non-trivial amount
of work, which will impede build caching once that feature lands. We
will likely make -debugdir support build caching eventually, but for
now, this preliminary change will make 'go test' much faster with build
caching.
And of course, the tests get simpler, which is nice.
basic.txt just builds main.go without a module. Similarly, we leave
imports.txt without a GOPRIVATE, to test the 'go list -m' fallback.
For all other tests, explicitly set GOPRIVATE, to avoid two exec calls -
both 'go env GOPRIVATE' as well as 'go list -m'. Each of those calls
takes in the order of 10ms, so saving ~26 exec calls should easily add
to 200-300ms saved from 'go test -short'.
Fixes #2.
Line numbers are now obfuscated, via `//line` comments.
Filenames are now obfuscated via `//line` comments, instead of changing the actual filename.
New flag `-tiny` to reduce the binary size, at the cost of reversibility.
