Alessandro Arzilli 79e0f543c0 cmd/dlv: add Go version check (#1533)
Before doing anything check that the version of Go is compatible with
the current version of Delve.
This will improve the error message in the case that  another change as
disruptive as Go1.11 dwarf compression, happens.

dlv test

Compile test binary and begin debugging program.

Synopsis

Compiles a test binary with optimizations disabled and begins a new debug session.

The test command allows you to begin a new debug session in the context of your unit tests. By default Delve will debug the tests in the current directory. Alternatively you can specify a package name, and Delve will debug the tests in that package instead.

dlv test [package]

Options

      --output string   Output path for the binary. (default "debug.test")

Options inherited from parent commands

      --accept-multiclient   Allows a headless server to accept multiple client connections. Note that the server API is not reentrant and clients will have to coordinate.
      --api-version int      Selects API version when headless. (default 1)
      --backend string       Backend selection:
	default		Uses lldb on macOS, native everywhere else.
	native		Native backend.
	lldb		Uses lldb-server or debugserver.
	rr		Uses mozilla rr (https://github.com/mozilla/rr).
 (default "default")
      --build-flags string   Build flags, to be passed to the compiler.
      --check-go-version     Checks that the version of Go in use is compatible with Delve. (default true)
      --headless             Run debug server only, in headless mode.
      --init string          Init file, executed by the terminal client.
  -l, --listen string        Debugging server listen address. (default "localhost:0")
      --log                  Enable debugging server logging.
      --log-dest string      Writes logs to the specified file or file descriptor. If the argument is a number it will be interpreted as a file descriptor, otherwise as a file path. This option will also redirect the "API listening" message in headless mode.
      --log-output string    Comma separated list of components that should produce debug output, possible values:
	debugger	Log debugger commands
	gdbwire		Log connection to gdbserial backend
	lldbout		Copy output from debugserver/lldb to standard output
	debuglineerr	Log recoverable errors reading .debug_line
	rpc		Log all RPC messages
	fncall		Log function call protocol
	minidump	Log minidump loading
Defaults to "debugger" when logging is enabled with --log.
      --wd string            Working directory for running the program. (default ".")
