cmd/go: update go vet documentation

[rog, 2013-06-07 08:07:08]

Hello rsc@golang.org (cc: golang-dev@googlegroups.com),

I'd like you to review this change to
https://go.googlecode.com/hg/

change looks good, do you also want to mention how to
update (or install) vet in the help message?

[rog, 2013-06-07 12:36:55]

Good question. I'll await consensus on that.

might as well say how to install it too, although "go vet" will also remind you

i remembered that you once said the future binary dists
will contain copy of those programs, if that is the case, how about
we document the installation of those tools in /doc/install/source
as only those who install from source need the info.

and only document how to update them in "go help vet"?

LGTM with updated URL only

[r, 2013-06-07 15:42:23]

How about doing nothing now, since it's all changing anyway? We'll
only have to come back and fix up whatever installation stuff we write
now.

I'll LGTM the CL as is
