docs(readme): scope the Go 1.26+ requirement to go install#24
Merged
Conversation
The line "Requires Go 1.26+" sat directly under the `go install` block but a quick read could parse it as a global prerequisite. Only the `go install` path (and building from source) needs a Go toolchain on the user's machine; Homebrew, the scripted installer, Nix, and the Linux .deb/.rpm/.apk packages all ship a pre-compiled binary and have zero Go dependency at install or runtime. Reworded to make the scope explicit and to call out the alternative install methods that don't require Go.
