gopkgs should also list the dependencies in the vendor directory

[untra]

Feature Request:
Certain go package management systems such as dep or glide have a vendor directory in the project repo which will contain the dependencies relevant to a project.

In order to address this vscode-go bug , gopkgs should be able to list the contents of the local vendor directory, if it exists.

User Story

As a user of vscode
I would like my vendor dependencies to be listed as available imports
when I run gopkgs in a repo with a vendor folder
dependencies in the vendor folder should be included in the listed output.

It is already supported.

If you have some project/package contains vendor on the GOPATH, try to execute

gopkgs |grep vendor

It should shows some of the vendor dependencies

I tested this on a few other different repos and saw it does indeed pick up the repos in the vendor folder, but not in my own personal project.

after some research I believe this might be the issue for me:

https://github.com/uudashr/gopkgs/blob/master/gopkgs.go#L120-L123

My repo with a vendor directory is stored by symlink in my gopath, and yeah, following symlinks with golang is tricky. That is likely why gopkgs can't find my vendor'd resources then 🤔

but if I cd into my repo (not through the symlink in my gopath), I can't seem to use gopkgs -workDir={"echo pwd"} to tell it to look there for my working dir. Maybe I'm getting the syntax wrong on the -workDir parameter?

thanks for your help 👍
