Seth Hoenig 15fb4c990a deps: Switch to Go modules for dependency management
This PR switches the Nomad repository from using govendor to Go modules
for managing dependencies. Aspects of the Nomad workflow remain pretty
much the same. The usual Makefile targets should continue to work as
they always did. The API submodule simply defers to the parent Nomad
version on the repository, keeping the semantics of API versioning that
currently exists.

# Gorilla WebSocket
[![GoDoc](https://godoc.org/github.com/gorilla/websocket?status.svg)](https://godoc.org/github.com/gorilla/websocket)
[![CircleCI](https://circleci.com/gh/gorilla/websocket.svg?style=svg)](https://circleci.com/gh/gorilla/websocket)
Gorilla WebSocket is a [Go](http://golang.org/) implementation of the
[WebSocket](http://www.rfc-editor.org/rfc/rfc6455.txt) protocol.
### Documentation
* [API Reference](https://pkg.go.dev/github.com/gorilla/websocket?tab=doc)
* [Chat example](https://github.com/gorilla/websocket/tree/master/examples/chat)
* [Command example](https://github.com/gorilla/websocket/tree/master/examples/command)
* [Client and server example](https://github.com/gorilla/websocket/tree/master/examples/echo)
* [File watch example](https://github.com/gorilla/websocket/tree/master/examples/filewatch)
### Status
The Gorilla WebSocket package provides a complete and tested implementation of
the [WebSocket](http://www.rfc-editor.org/rfc/rfc6455.txt) protocol. The
package API is stable.
### Installation
go get github.com/gorilla/websocket
### Protocol Compliance
The Gorilla WebSocket package passes the server tests in the [Autobahn Test
Suite](https://github.com/crossbario/autobahn-testsuite) using the application in the [examples/autobahn
subdirectory](https://github.com/gorilla/websocket/tree/master/examples/autobahn).

Notes:
1. Large messages are fragmented in [Chrome's new WebSocket implementation](http://www.ietf.org/mail-archive/web/hybi/current/msg10503.html).
2. The application can get the type of a received data message by implementing
a [Codec marshal](http://godoc.org/golang.org/x/net/websocket#Codec.Marshal)
function.
3. The go.net io.Reader and io.Writer operate across WebSocket frame boundaries.
Read returns when the input buffer is full or a frame boundary is
encountered. Each call to Write sends a single frame message. The Gorilla
io.Reader and io.WriteCloser operate on a single WebSocket message.
