    cmd/go: record both build ID and content ID in archives and binaries · cdbc363c
    Russ Cox authored
    The content ID will be needed for content-based staleness
    determination. It is defined as the SHA256 hash of the file
    in which it appears, with occurrences of the build+content IDs
    changed to zeros during the hashing operation.
    
    Storing the content ID in the archives is a little tricky
    but it means that later builds need not rehash the archives
    each time they are referenced, so under the assumption
    that each package is imported at least once after being
    compiled, hashing at build time is a win. (Also the whole
    file is more likely to be in cache at build time,
    since we just wrote it.)
    
    In my unscientific tests, the time for "go build -a std cmd"
    rises from about 14.3s to 14.5s on my laptop, or under 2%.
