I needed Go 1.10 to debug and fix a test failure on that Go version in
x/tools, but I forgot what the magic 'go get' command for this was.
Googling "download specific golang version" and similar keywords showed
no results, presumably because the golang.org/dl subrepo isn't
prominently recommended nor documented anywhere.
The most appropriate documentation page to add this to is doc/install,
since it goes into some detail and is well indexed. We only need a short
section to introduce the trick.
The example does mention a specific version, Go 1.10.7, but I couldn't
imagine a way to make it version-agnostic while still being clear on
what the commands effectively do.

This is about a minor change but worthy of note because this
may affect the profile results users will see.

The ABI changes should be completely transparent to Go code, but could
cause linking issues in certain situations involving assembly code
reaching across package boundaries. If users encounter linking
problems, point them to the "Compatibility" section of the ABI design
document, which gives some guidance.

Worth mentioning because the results are not bit-for-bit identical.
This causes a test failure in github.com/fogleman/gg.

wrap the paragraph at ~70 columns, like all the others.

Change a link in the cgo section of the 1.12 release notes from
https://golang.org/cmd/cgo ...
to
/cmd/cgo/ ...
to uniform it with other links on the page, and to ensure correct
target when the page is displayed on tip.golang.org.
