Update install.html to clarify adding the default Go bin directory
to PATH for Linux and macOS.

Restructure the uninstallation instructions in manage-install.html
to use OS-specific tab panels that match the install page.

Document GOBIN user data cleanup in manage-install.html and remind
users to remove the Go bin directory from their PATH during
uninstallation.

Standardize file paths with proper HTML code tags and lowercase
all occurrences of the word "terminal".

Fixes golang/go#39531

@conooi conooi force-pushed the fix-docs-installation branch from 68e353c to 079e524 Compare June 8, 2026 19:22
conooi added 2 commits June 8, 2026 12:23
Updates doc/install and doc/manage-install to explicitly mention adding
the GOPATH bin directory to the user's PATH on macOS. Also restructures
the manage-install uninstall layout using tabs panels to match install layouts.

This addresses the suggestion made in:
golang/go#39531 (comment)

Specifically, added a note and example workflow setup instruction for
appending export PATH="$PATH:$(go env GOPATH)/bin" to target shell
profiles. Also broke OS lists details into responsive tabs layouts to fit reviewers feedback criteria.

Change-Id: I00cbc17ba1575689f0fee676f2dd0c6d3ff53dd6
Update manage-install.html to remind users to remove the Go bin directory from their PATH when deleting GOBIN.

Standardize the capitalization of terminal across install.html and manage-install.html.
