[Go] Enable GC checks

[pitrou]

Describe the enhancement requested

Judging by this sporadic failure, it seems we should enable GC checks on unsafe pointers in CGo builds:
https://github.com/apache/arrow/actions/runs/6943203792/job/18887771947?pr=38799#step:8:19738

runtime: marked free object in span 0x7efb82dd4608, elemsize=80 freeindex=8 (bad use of unsafe.Pointer? try -d=checkptr)

Component(s)

Go, Integration

@zeroshade What do you think?

Well, trying this I'm getting lots of integration failures locally such as:

<class 'RuntimeError'>: Command failed: /opt/go/bin/arrow-json-integration-test -arrow /tmp/tmpqrulbq1o/02bb48c6_generated_map_non_canonical.json_as_file -json /tmp/arrow-integration-tu81iiwl/generated_map_non_canonical.json -mode JSON_TO_ARROW
With output:

[pitrou]

Ok, it seems to be because of golang/go#42131 (comment)

Hats off to Go for excellent documentation as usual.

[zeroshade]

In the past, when we've encountered this it has been that we weren't zero'ing out one of the C structs before it being passed to a function and the pointer checker was seeing garbage that happened to look similarly to a Go pointer which triggered the error.

I'm guessing there's another spot where we're failing to zero out the struct and probably need to add another trampoline like we did before.

All that being said, I agree we should probably enable the checks for CGO CI builds and integrations
