doc: Mention contributor agreement immediately after Gerrit

Browse Source 
I walked through the steps for a contribution but ended up
with an error when doing "git mail" because I didn't have a
signed agreement.

Added a section to check for or create one through Gerrit right
after the user has created the account and logged in.

Moved some info from copyright section to the new section.

To send your first change to the Go project from a given address,
you must have completed one of the contributor license agreements:

(If the copyright holder for your code has already completed the
agreement in connection with another Google open source project,
it does not need to be completed again.)
