When our expected type is a named type from another package, we now always
search that other package for completion candidates, even if it is not currently
imported.
Consider the example:
-- foo.go --
import "context"
func doSomething(ctx context.Context) {}
-- bar.go--
doSomething(<>)
"bar.go" doesn't import "context" yet, so normally you need to first import
"context" through whatever means before you get completion items from "context".
Now we notice that the expected type's package hasn't been imported yet and give
deep completions from "context".
Another use case is with literal completions. Consider:
-- foo.go --
import "bytes"
func doSomething(buf *bytes.Buffer) {}
-- bar.go--
doSomething(<>)
Now you will get a literal completion for "&bytes.Buffer{}" in "bar.go" even
though it hasn't imported "bytes" yet.
I had to pipe the import info around a bunch of places so the import is added
automatically for deep completions and literal completions.

Go Tools
This subrepository holds the source for various packages and tools that support the Go programming language.
Some of the tools, godoc and vet for example, are included in binary Go
distributions.
Others, including the Go guru and the test coverage tool, can be fetched with
go get.
Packages include a type-checker for Go and an implementation of the Static Single Assignment form (SSA) representation for Go programs.
Download/Install
The easiest way to install is to run go get -u golang.org/x/tools/.... You can
also manually git clone the repository to $GOPATH/src/golang.org/x/tools.
