Description of Change

The distribution project: https://github.com/distribution/distribution is a golang toolkit with an extremely generic name likely to generate false positives in many different places.

This change proposes a generic suppression against anything that's not golang, as a workaround for lack of support for the extended attributes in CPEs (:go:) as denoted in NVD (surprisingly given I think it only has one language).

Have test cases been added to cover the new functionality?
