If the analysis scope is not set, inspect all packages that depend on
the query package.

Features:
More robust: silently ignore type errors in modes that don't need
SSA form: describe, referrers, implements, freevars, description.
This makes the tool much more robust for everyday queries.
Less configuration: don't require a scope argument for all queries.
Only queries that do pointer analysis need it.
For the rest, the initial position is enough for
importQueryPackage to deduce the scope.
It now works for queries in GoFiles, TestGoFiles, or XTestGoFiles.
(It no longer works for ad-hoc main packages like
$GOROOT/src/net/http/triv.go)
More complete: "referrers" computes the scope automatically by
scanning the import graph of the entire workspace, using gorename's
refactor/importgraph package. This requires two passes at loading.
Faster: simplified start-up logic avoids unnecessary package loading
and SSA construction (a consequence of bad abstraction) in many
cases.
"callgraph": remove it. Unlike all the other commands it isn't
related to the current selection, and we have
golang.org/x/tools/cmdcallgraph now.
Internals:
Drop support for long-running clients (i.e., Pythia), since
godoc -analysis supports all the same features except "pointsto",
and precomputes all the results so latency is much lower.
Get rid of various unhelpful abstractions introduced to support
long-running clients. Expand out the set-up logic for each
subcommand. This is simpler, easier to read, and gives us more
control, at a small cost in duplication---the familiar story of
abstractions.
Discard PTA warnings. We weren't showing them (nor should we).
Split tests into separate directories (so that importgraph works).

Command set:
- what: an extremely fast query that parses a single
file and returns the AST stack, package name and the
set of query modes that apply to the current selection.
Intended for GUI tools that need to grey out UI elements.
- definition: shows the definition of an identifier.
- pointsto: the PTA features of 'describe' have been split
out into their own command.
- describe: with PTA stripped out, the cost is now bounded by
type checking.
Performance:
- The importer.Config.TypeCheckFuncBodies predicate supports
setting the 'IgnoreFuncBodies' typechecker flag on a
per-package basis. This means we can load dependencies from
source more quickly if we only need exported types.
(We avoid gcimport data because it may be absent or stale.)
This also means we can run type-based queries on packages
that aren't part of the pointer analysis scope. (Yay.)
- Modes that require only type analysis of the query package
run a "what" query first, and restrict their analysis scope
to just that package and its dependencies (sans func
bodies), making them much faster.
- We call newOracle not oracle.New in Query, so that the
'needs' bitset isn't ignored (oops!). This makes the
non-PTA queries faster.
Also:
- removed vestigial timers junk.
- pos.go: existing position utilties split out into own file.
Added parsePosFlag utility.
- numerous cosmetic tweaks.
+ very basic tests.
To do in follow-ups:
- sophisticated editor integration of "what".
- better tests.
- refactoring of control flow as described in comment.
- changes to "implements", "describe" commands.
- update design doc + user manual.
