Go toolbox

Various packages for Go projects. This is a mixed bag of functions and packages that are useful with no general theme.

We could name it utils but "toolbox" is a better description, this is a library with all the weird parts you find in a proper toolbox with customized screwdrivers, hacked-off box keys, welded-together contraptions and objects that make you think "oh, I can't imagine what this is for".

Some of these are gathered from the now-defunct ExploratoryEngineering organization.
