Robert Griesemer 4c2a4004bd readme: emphasize issue tracker is for bugs/proposals 
Removed direct link to issue tracker in the README - it makes it too
easy to use it for a question - and it's abused multiple times a day
for questions. It's easy enough to find it if there's a real issue
to report.

Added sentence to point people at golang-nuts and the new forum.

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.
