Need go.formatFlags to support gofmt -s simplify mode

Our build server enforces the use of gofmt with the simplify mode. Right now I don't see a way to pass the -s flag to the formatting tool in vscode. Can we add a go.formatFlags setting?

Example code for testing:

var final = strings.Split("a b c", " ")
var first = strings.Split("d e f", " ")
final = append(final, first[2:len(first)]...)
//gofmt -s main.go would change the previous line to
final = append(final, first[2:]...)

PRs welcome for this. Should be a simple addition modelled after go.buildFlags/go.lintFlags.

Add go.formatFlags configuration parameter to pass parameters to form…

Thanks! The following in my settings.json worked exactly as I wanted:

// Place your settings in this file to overwrite the default settings
{
    "go.formatTool": "gofmt",
    "go.formatFlags": ["-s", "-e"]
}
