[pkg-go] Bug#1143916: golang-github-bmizerany-assert: don't ship in forky/testing

Package: golang-github-bmizerany-assert
Version: 0.0~git20160611.b7ed37b-1
Severity: serious

This project was abandoned upstream 10+ years ago with this message:

https://github.com/bmizerany/assert
"NO LONGER MAINTAINED - Just use Go's testing package."

We should not ship it in forky or testing.

Alas it has dependencies in Debian:

golang-github-bitly-go-simplejson
golang-github-bmizerany-pat
golang-github-hailocab-go-hostpool
golang-github-fluent-fluent-logger-golang
hub

I'm working on uploading fixed versions of those packages, but there is
no reason to not start the testing removal process of
golang-github-bmizerany-assert now.
