thepudds 4820816b0d cmd/go/internal/modcmd: remove documentation for auto-converting legacy formats
CL 518776 dropped the ability of 'go mod init' to convert
legacy pre-module dependency configuration files, such as automatically
transforming a Gopkg.lock to a go.mod file with similar requirements,
but some of the documentation remained.

In this CL, we remove it from the cmd/go documentation.
(CL 662675 is a companion change that removes it from the Modules
Reference page).

Updates #71537
