New SDK sentry-go

[HazAT]

Hello Sentry Go users,

We wanted to let you know that we are currently in the process of moving over to a new version of this Sentry Go SDK.

Where is the new Go SDK?
The repo can be found here: https://github.com/getsentry/sentry-go
and is still WIP. It will support Go for n-2 versions, so 1.10 - 1.12 (as of now).

Why are you doing a new SDK?
A lot has changed since in Sentry the first version of this SDK which our amazing community started (thanks @titanous and others). We are currently in the process to bring all Sentry SDKs closer together and unify them as much as possible, this now also includes the Go SDK.

https://docs.sentry.io/development/sdk-dev/unified-api/

Why are you not updating this repo?
Since the migration towards the unified API also includes breaking changes, it's hard for us to introduce them here because of how Go module/package management works.

Why should I care?
Well, good question.
I think if you are happy with what you have right now, you actually don't have to. If you are however a new Sentry Go SDK user then using the new SDK should make it a lot easier to get started. We also know we have many passionate people in our community and we happily accept any kind of feedback/PRs/concerns you have about this.

Thanks,
Daniel
