Daniel Martí 088f953fd0 all: add a few more godoc links
Over the past few months as I read the standard library's documentation
I kept finding spots where godoc links would have helped me.
I kept adding to a stash of changes to fix them up bit by bit.

The stash has grown big enough by now, and we're nearing a release,
so I think it's time to merge to avoid git conflicts or bit rot.

Note that a few sentences are slightly reworded,
since "implements the Fooer interface" can just be "implements [Fooer]"
now that the link provides all the context needed to the user.
