Hi,

I would like to propose splitting Go release process.

Motivation:

* We want to reduce needless major releases because major
   releases require users' change

Approach:

1. Extract go/ in apache/arrow to apache/arrow-go like
    apache/arrow-rs
    * Filter go/ related commits from apache/arrow and create
      apache/arrow-go with them like we did for apache/arrow-rs
    * Remove go/ related codes from apache/arrow
2. Prepare integration test CI like apache/arrow-rs does:
    
https://github.com/apache/arrow-rs/blob/master/.github/workflows/integration.yml
3. Prepare release script based on apache/arrow-julia,
    apache/arrow-adbc and/or apache/arrow-flight-sql-postgresql

New release process:

* apache/arrow-go will be released separated from
   apache/arrow
* Matt or Joel will be a release manager of apache/arrow-go
* apache/arrow releases a new major version per 3-4 months
   but apache/arrow-go will use more longer major release
   cycle
   * apache/arrow-go will use more minor/patch releases than
     apache/arrow

Impact on users:

* Users need to update their import paths to
   github.com/apache/arrow-go/v${VERSION}/arrow from
   github.com/apache/arrow/go/v${VERSION}/arrow
   * Currently, users need to update their import paths per
     3-4 months because apache/arrow uses a new major version
     per 3-4 months. So this will not a big impact for the
     current users.
