Bug#963740: golang-github-viant-toolbox: please make the build reproducible

Hi,

Whilst working on the Reproducible Builds effort [0] we noticed that
golang-github-viant-toolbox could not be built reproducibly.

This is because the testsuite generates some files with non-deterministic contents.

A patch is attached that removes them after the tests run. I tried to
simply remove these folders from DH_GOLANG_INSTALL_EXTRA but it
appeared that the testsuite then failed, but you might have better
luck.
