Hi,

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

This is because the testsuite generated an "all3.classic" file that
ended up in the binary package. This meant, therefore, that if the
tests were skipped (ie. via "nocheck") then the package would be
differ as it would be missing this file.

Patch attached that removes this file after running the tests. If,
however, the package needs this file, then the packaging will need
some rejigging.
