Go 1.8

[Andrew Wilkins]

Folks,

We have moved to Go 1.8 as a requirement for building juju core. I'm just
about to land a change that brings in a more recent golang.org/x/crypto
version, which means we'll be using the standard library's "context", which
isn't available in Go 1.6 and earlier. Please update your toolchain.

The snap is working well for me. Heather has found that it doesn't expose
"gofmt", which makes the pre-push hook sad. You can
add /snap/go/current/bin to your $PATH to get around that for now.

Cheers,
Andrew
