userdiff: add built-in pattern for golang

agrn · agrn · commit 635c20e2ff51 · 2018-08-06T13:33:33.000+02:00
This adds xfuncname and word_regex patterns for golang, a quite
popular programming language. It also includes test cases for the
xfuncname regex (t4018) and an updated documentation.

The xfuncname regex finds functions, structs and interfaces. The
word_regex pattern finds identifiers, integers, floats, complex
numbers and operators, according to the go specification.
