Travis: Run go vet; use race detector during tests (#16)

This change augments the Travis CI build to:
* Include -s (simplify) flag when checking that all files follow gofmt style.
* Check that go vet does not report any problems.
* Use race detector when running tests, to help catch data races.
* Include a fast-finish allowed failure build on master (tip). Due to a
chance of false positives, failures on tip are not critical, but manually
looking over them can help spot issues either in this project, or in the
tip version of Go.
* Use the explicit include job feature of Travis CI to make the Go 1.6
build only run tests, and not perform go vet, etc., checks, since they
are already done on new versions and can cause unnecessary failures.

Package for equality of Go values

GoDoc Build Status

This package is intended to be a more powerful and safer alternative to reflect.DeepEqual for comparing whether two values are semantically equal.

The primary features of cmp are:

  • When the default behavior of equality does not suit the needs of the test, custom equality functions can override the equality operation. For example, an equality function may report floats as equal so long as they are within some tolerance of each other.

  • Types that have an Equal method may use that method to determine equality. This allows package authors to determine the equality operation for the types that they define.

  • If no custom equality functions are used and no Equal method is defined, equality is determined by recursively comparing the primitive kinds on both values, much like reflect.DeepEqual. Unlike reflect.DeepEqual, unexported fields are not compared; they result in panics unless suppressed by using an Ignore option.

This is not an official Google product.
