Dominik Menke 41a9384638 docs: clarify installation-from-source instructions
Using github.com/go-acme/lego/cmd/lego confuses go get. It fetches
github.com/go-acme/lego@v2.7.2+incompatible (among others) and
stumbles over a type error with that version.

Correcting the go get path to github.com/go-acme/lego/v3/cmd/lego
does the right thing.
