go get ithub.com/docker/docker/client fails.

* https://forums.docker.com/t/possible-doc-bug-for-go-client/47374/2?u=rkielty Thanks David Maze!
* I have tested this with go 1.6.2 where it failed as described above
* I have test this with go 1.10 where it succeed

I cannot find a statement where the required minimum go version to get the client is called out
I checked the above doc along with
* https://godoc.org/github.com/docker/docker/client
* https://github.com/moby/moby/blob/master/client/README.md
