Is it acceptable to use bundled copies of dependencies?  The manual 
(section 16.6, checklist #6) says otherwise.

If it's okay, this would make packaging lxd much simpler.  I've had to 
package around 90 Go libraries so far.

If using lxd's bundled copies of dependencies would be accepted, then I 
withdraw this patch request.
