THRIFT-4011 Use slices for Thrift sets
As discussed in
[THRIFT-4011](https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/THRIFT-4011), this commit
changes the Go generator to use slices, instead of maps for Thrift sets.
I've specifically didn't touch the Go library since there was no agreement
on panicking for duplicates. We have three options:
1. Leave it as is and add documentation stating deduplication is the
caller's responsibility.
2. Silently deduplicate before serialization.
3. panic on duplicates.
2 and 3 probably requires
[`reflect.DeepEqual`](https://golang.org/pkg/reflect/#DeepEqual), which is not
ideal.

THRIFT-4011 Use slices for Thrift sets
This commit changes the Go generator to use slices, instead of maps for
Thrift sets.

> Sets of Thrift structs generate Go code that can't be serialized to JSON

> Key: THRIFT-4011
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/THRIFT-4011
> Project: Thrift
> Issue Type: Bug
> Components: Go - Compiler
> Reporter: Can Celasun
>
> Consider the following structs:
> {code}
> struct Foo {
> 1: optional string foo
> }
> struct Bar {
> 1: optional set<Foo> foos
> }
> {code}
> This compiles into the following Go code:
> {code}
> type Bar struct {
> Foos map[*Foo]struct{} `thrift:"foos,1" db:"foos" json:"foos,omitempty"`
> }
> {code}
> Even though the generated code has tags for JSON support, Bar can't be
> serialized to JSON:
> {code}
> json: unsupported type: map[*Foo]struct {}
> {code}
> One solution would be to use slices, not maps, for Thrift sets. Thoughts?
