docs: add pages to support Go module package resolution Currently the libvirt Go modules are accessed by applications using their github repository URLs. This is undesirable as we don't want applications to have a direct dependancy on a specific source repo location. We want to enable applications to use the Go packages via the libvirt.org namespace. When you do "go get libvirt.org/libvirt-go", the Go client will do an HTTPS request to that URL, and parse the HTML content to look for a <meta> tag which tells it where to the find the GIT repository. https://golang.org/cmd/go/#hdr-Remote_import_paths This adds two pages to support this Go module resolution. They are not linked from anywhere as we don't expect users to actually look at them. If someone does happen upon them, there's some boilerplate text to send them off to godoc.org for API documentation. Since the pages we're adding have a .html extension, we will also use a small apache config tweak on the server RewriteEngine on RewriteRule ^/libvirt-go$ /libvirt-go.html [L] RewriteRule ^/libvirt-go-xml$ /libvirt-go-xml.html [L] Reviewed-by: Jiri Denemark <jdenemar@redhat.com> Signed-off-by: Daniel P.

=======================
Libvirt Go Language API
=======================
The `Go <https://golang.org/>`__ package ``libvirt.org/libvirt-go`` provides
`CGo <https://golang.org/cmd/cgo/>`__ binding from the OS native Libvirt API.
In general the Go representation is a direct 1-1 mapping from native API
concepts to Go, so the native API documentation should serve as a reference
for most behaviour.
For details of Go specific behaviour consult the
`Go package documentation <https://godoc.org/libvirt.org/libvirt-go>`__
