migrate away from vendor

[chuckha]

Instead of vendoring the tools this will install the tools when the script is executed and clean up any necessary files when it finishes running, ignoring the newly generated go.mod and go.sum files.

This will allow any tools we want to own to get pulled into this repo and use go mod instead of dep.

For example, there is interest in moving kepval into this repo or at least under the control of kubernetes. I can only assume the same may be true of mdtoc?

@chuckha -- can we keep vendor around and add go.mod+go.sum instead?

[chuckha]

it depends on why you want to do that. Can you list out the problems vendor is solving and we can figure out a solution for what you're looking for?

[nikhita]

+1 to pruning vendor. From #1163 (comment), I'm guessing there is consensus on removing vendor too?

[chuckha]

@nikhita Yep, that's right, we're going to move away from vendor and if we need to fallback for some reason the option will always be there.

[nikhita]

Awesome! This lgtm. :)

[chuckha]

@justaugustus anything else to change here?

[justaugustus]

Nope, I just hadn't had a chance to do a review sweep of open PRs yet.
Looks great, @chuckha. Thanks again for working on this!
