proposal: x/tools/go/analysis: register debug flag in analysistest.Run

[mneverov]

Proposal Details

Currently, flags for analysis driver are registered in an internal package and are used in the Main function that runs analysis.
It would be nice to register flags in analysistest.Run and RunWithSuggestedFixes. I am interested in particular in the debug flag that allows to run analyzer sequentially, that simplifies debugging tests.

Other issues I found and red regarding flags #65776, #53215, and #32155.

Would this API #61324, in particular, the Sequential flag, address your need?

If so, I'll bring that change back up to date and finally merge it.

@adonovan the proposal looks great! Looking forward to it to be merged :)
