In the binary sizes FAQ, the approximate size of a Go hello world
binary was said to be 1.5MB (it was about 1.6MB on go1.7 on
linux/amd64). Sadly, this is no longer true. A Go1.10 hello world is
2.0MB, and in 1.11 it'll be about 2.5MB.
Just say "a couple megabytes" to stop this dance.

The existing text makes it seem like there's no way
to use GitHub over HTTPS. There is. Explain that.
Also, the existing text suggests explicit checkout into $GOPATH,
which is not going to work in the new module world.
Drop that alternative.
Also, the existing text uses pushInsteadOf instead of insteadOf,
which would have the effect of being able to push to a private
repo but not clone it in the first place. That seems not helpful,
so suggest insteadOf instead.
Fixes#18927.

This CL adjusts code referring to src/pkg to refer to src.
Immediately after submitting this CL, I will submit
a change doing 'hg mv src/pkg/* src'.
That change will be too large to review with Rietveld
but will contain only the 'hg mv'.
This CL will break the build.
The followup 'hg mv' will fix it.
For more about the move, see golang.org/s/go14nopkg.
