This PR fixes an issue that's haunting all the dependency managers out there (e.g. tools/godep#422), namely that they only take into consideration Go dependencies, and not CGO ones. This results in build failures for all projects where C files are in subfolders (i.e. most of them), as the dependency manager deletes all those folders thinking they are unused.
This fixes the issue by doing a second round of import scanning, where instead of looking for Go import statements, the code looks for CGO preambles and extracts any
#include "path"
-s where the path points to an existing folder. This will result in any folders references by CGO code to be kept, instead of trashed.
