When cgo is enabled, the Go toolchain writes temporary source files
(*.c) under GOTMPDIR and compiles them there. when -trimpath is passed
to go, Go passes options such as
-ffile-prefix-map=$WORK/b387=/tmp/go-build internally to the GCC
instance it invokes. The variable WORK is a temporary directory created
under GOTMPDIR, refer the following log:

[snip of compile log]

OE also passes its own DEBUG_PREFIX_MAP to GCC(finally by CGO_CFLAGS),
including -ffile-prefix-map=${B}=${TARGET_DBGSRC_DIR}, where B is
${WORKDIR}/build. Because GOTMPDIR defaults to ${WORKDIR}/build-tmp, the
Go temporary directory looks like ${WORKDIR}/build-tmp/go-buildXYZ. Its
prefix therefore begins with ${WORKDIR}/build, so GCC matches the
DEBUG_PREFIX_MAP entry for ${B} first.

As a result, a path such as ${WORKDIR}/build-tmp/go-buildXYZ is
rewritten to ${TARGET_DBGSRC_DIR}-tmp/go-buildXYZ. This breaks the
-ffile-prefix-map option that Go itself adds, because the original WORK
path no longer matches the value Go expects. Since Go creates
go-buildXYZ directories randomly and internally, this causes the build
non-reproducible.

This patch changes GOTMPDIR from ${WORKDIR}/build-tmp to
${WORKDIR}/tmp-go-build so that the path no longer matches ${B}. This
prevents unintended replacements by OE's DEBUG_PREFIX_MAP and
restores reproducibility.

Note that pure go program like go-helloworld under OE will not have this
issue since it doen't use cgo, it is reproducible without this fix
