Add steps to the development guide for how to use godep to update an

existing dependency.

Also change from the numbered lists from markdown that didn't work due to
the intervening code blocks to just raw text numbered lists.

### Installing godep
There are many ways to build and host go binaries. Here is an easy way to get utilities like ```godep``` installed:

directly from mercurial.

### Using godep
Here is a quick summary of `godep`. `godep` helps manage third party dependencies by copying known versions into Godeps/_workspace. Here is the recommended way to set up your system. There are other ways that may work, but this is the easiest one I know of.
1. Devote a directory to this endeavor:

# Sanity check that your Godeps.json file is ok by re-restoring:

5) Before sending your PR, it's a good idea to sanity check that your Godeps.json file is ok by re-restoring: ```godep restore```
I (lavalamp) have sometimes found it expedient to manually fix the /Godeps/godeps.json file to minimize the changes.
Please send dependency updates in separate commits within your PR, for easier reviewing.
