Russ Cox 20a10e7ddd build: require old Go to build new Go (and convert cmd/dist to Go)
This CL introduces the bootstrap requirement that in order to
build the current release (or development version) of Go, you
need an older Go release (1.4 or newer) already installed.
This requirement is the whole point of this CL.

To enforce the requirement, convert cmd/dist from C to Go.

With this bootstrapping out of the way, we can move on to
replacing other, larger C programs like the Go compiler,
the assemblers, and the linker.

See golang.org/s/go15bootstrap for details.

Binary Distribution Notes

If you have just untarred a binary Go distribution, you need to set the environment variable $GOROOT to the full path of the go directory (the one containing this file). You can omit the variable if you unpack it into /usr/local/go, or if you rebuild from sources by running all.bash (see doc/install-source.html). You should also add the Go binary directory $GOROOT/bin to your shell's path.

For example, if you extracted the tar file into $HOME/go, you might put the following in your .profile:

export GOROOT=$HOME/go
export PATH=$PATH:$GOROOT/bin

See https://golang.org/doc/install or doc/install.html for more details.
