golang: Add support for nil channel

Send/recv on the nil channel block forever; close panics.
If a nil channel is used in select - corresponding case is never selected.

Setting channel to nil is a usual idiom in Go to disable processing some
cases in select. Nil channel is also used as "done" for e.g.
context.Background() - for contexts that can be never canceled.

`go` spawns a coroutine, or thread if gevent was not activated. It is possible to
exchange data in between either threads or coroutines via channels. `chan`
creates a new channel with Go semantic - either synchronous or buffered. Use
`chan.recv`, `chan.send` and `chan.close` for communication. `select` can be
used to multiplex on several channels. For example::
`chan.recv`, `chan.send` and `chan.close` for communication. `nilchan`
stands for the nil channel. `select` can be used to multiplex on several
channels. For example::
ch1 = chan() # synchronous channel
ch2 = chan(3) # channel with buffer of size 3
