Proposed commit message
go submodules are excluded from the module zip of the parent module
turning docs folder into go modules saves around ~90MB from the module zip
Using beats as a dependency currently adds around ~320MB of data into go cache. Most of it is useless (e.g. docs folder) and is adding unnecessary bloat for downstream users which slows down download, CI, etc.
