Keep modules, lint cache and system packages in check builds (closes #130)
check / check (push) Canceled after 0s

On sneak's ruling in #130, check
builds keep three more things besides Go's build cache. In each stage of
the canonical Go Dockerfile, the system-package install and the module
download come before ARG CACHEBUST, so Docker keeps those layers until
the base image, the install line, go.mod or go.sum changes. Modules are
kept as a layer, not a cache mount, because Go does not check a cache
mount's files again. golangci-lint run also mounts golangci-lint's cache.
Every step that lints, tests or compiles still comes after ARG CACHEBUST,
both go test runs keep -count=1, and a step that also installs node
packages stays below the line. The policy, checklists, Go style guide,
README and script comments say the same.

# The phase is not the last stage in the file, so it is built only when
# --target names it. A new CACHEBUST value reruns every RUN step, since
# a cached lint layer is a lint that did not run; unlike --no-cache, it
# keeps Go's build cache. This relies on every stage of the Dockerfile
# declaring ARG CACHEBUST first; a stage without that line is served
# from cache on an unchanged tree, with no warning.
