Just a draft right now, as the flake.nix part is not yet done. I want to put the test into nixpkgs, and only reference it here to make it easy to run the test with the latest executable if needed.

I guess this will be rarely needed, but it's nice to have an easy way to debug this.

The actual change to the go binary seems fairly small - still I would like to discuss it if I perhaps misunderstood how this works.

/nix/store needs to be allowed to execute as it contains all the
binaries
…ests

This commit currently shows an in-between state before the tests are
moved into nixpkgs, where they should live and only be referenced from
here (I think).

So this is kind of a draft right now to show what I want to achieve and
to allow testing that while not done yet.
