GitHub has defined a set of standard meta files to include with projects hosted on GitHub. According to the GitHub Insights Community page for go project the only one missing is the code of conduct. Go has a code of conduct on it's website and we should link to it in the prescribed `.github/CODE_OF_CONDUCT.md` so that people can find it in the standard location on GitHub. This would be consistent with the contribution guidelines that are linked to in `.github/CONTRIBUTING.md`.
