-----------------------------------

             Summary: Add go.mod file(s)
                 Key: THRIFT-5358
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/THRIFT-5358
             Project: Thrift
          Issue Type: Task
          Components: Go - Library
    Affects Versions: 0.14.0
            Reporter: Yuxuan Wang


Go 1.16 already disallowed building without go.mod file by default (still override-able with GO111MODULES=auto environment variable), and Go 1.17 will remove that override option, so we need to add go.mod file(s) to unblock developers working on tip and using Go 1.16+.

Based on the current discussion on https://github.com/golang/go/issues/34055, we probably will need to add 2 go.mod files:

# one under lib/go/thrift for our users to use. A release process change is also required because of this file: for all the future releases, we would need to double tag with "lib/go/thrift/" prefix (e.g. for 0.15.0 release we would need to git tag "v0.15.0" and "lib/go/thrift/v0.15.0" on the same commit)
# another under root for the tests to work on Go 1.16+
