The docs in .github & CONTRIBUTING.md have three different links to the same place. I have picked the one from "10-proposal.md" as the canonical url as it uses the normal go website shortener service (thus centralizing any future maintenance of this location), uses the new public domain (go.dev over golang.org), and also picks up the readme URI fragment from the shortener redirect which allows the doc links to be cleaner, but also the convenience for the reader starting directly at the human readable parsed README.md.
Should also cut down on confusion like I had reading documentation about why there were multiple proposal sites, which turned out all to be the same place.
Update all proposal-process links to the same URL.

Also remove the "Also, please do not post patches on the issue
tracker" part, since that didn't seem to reduce the number of patches
inlined into bug reports. And now that we accept PRs, people will
probably try that first. We'll see.

It was released with 1.8, so it should be widely available.

Encourage people towards the various help forums as a first port of
call. Better sign-posting will reduce the incidence or questions being
asked in the issue tracker that should otherwise be handled elsewhere,
thereby keeping the issue tracker email traffic more focussed.

Since the move to Github, we've started to receive lots of
introductory questions to the bug tracker. I posit this is because
most projects on Github don't have mailing lists, so the culture on
Github is to use the Issue Tracker as a discussion forum.
The Go project doesn't use the Issue Tracker as our first point of
communication. This CL updates CONTRIBUTING.md (which is linked when
you file a bug or send a pull request), to mention that we have a
mailing list.
It certainly won't stop all the errant bug reports, but it should
help.
