The Godeps directory has not been used since updating the project to use Go Modules. This PR removes that directory structure and any README instructions referencing go dep utility (which is now deprecated). In its place, we are adding instructions on how to build and maintain the project and its dependencies using go mod and go get and discussing how contributors should prescriptively update Go module dependencies and be cognizant of using proper versioned releases for releasing this project's source code and binaries.
