blog: serve relative links when run locally

Currently, links inside blog articles are absolute links to golang.org.
But when a godoc server is run locally, the blog package should
serve local links pointing to the local godoc server. It is not possible
to simply change the links inside the blog templates to relative urls
because the blog articles are independant pages on their own.
And moreover, they are served from blog.golang.org.

Rather, the blog package consumes and serves blog articles.
So, a flag was added in the Config struct to denote whether
to convert the links or not. This flag is then set from the
call site in godoc package where the blog server is initialized from.

This was required because "golang.org/x/tools/blog" is a package
which can be used by other code to serve blog pages and not just godoc.
This preserves existing functionality for all working code which
imports "golang.org/x/tools/blog" and changes the functionality only
when a godoc server is run locally.

And while here, replace relevant bytes.Buffer occurences
with strings.Builder.

Fixes golang/go#22681

Go Tools

This subrepository holds the source for various packages and tools that support the Go programming language.

Some of the tools, godoc and vet for example, are included in binary Go distributions.

Others, including the Go guru and the test coverage tool, can be fetched with go get.

Packages include a type-checker for Go and an implementation of the Static Single Assignment form (SSA) representation for Go programs.

Download/Install

The easiest way to install is to run go get -u golang.org/x/tools/.... You can also manually git clone the repository to $GOPATH/src/golang.org/x/tools.
