Add man page for makegocons

This is the guide about how to make goconserver as
a replacement for conserver to help slove the issues reported
for conserver, like: #4043, #3543. For openbmc, the solution of
goconserver is much light-weighted than the conserver which could
help save the system resource. In addition, sshpass is not needed
for openbmc with goconserver.

Implement: #4337

+***********
+DESCRIPTION
+***********
+
+
+The \ **makegocons**\  command will start the goconserver service if it is not started, then
+send the rest request to create or delete the session resource in the goconserver service. The session
+information including the session command or ssh connection parameters (for openbmc) is generated by xcat
+based on the records in the related tables (e.g. nodehm, ipmi, ppc, openbmc).
+
+By default \ **makegocons**\  will register the session for all of the nodes in xcat.
+
+If a \ *noderange*\  is specified, only the session in the specified scope will be affected, goconserver
+service will not be restarted and the the other session will not be disconnected. This is the advantage
+of goconserver compare with the conserver service with \ **makeconservercf**\ .
+
+If \ **-d**\  is specified, \ **makegocons**\  will remove the session in the goconserver service.
+
+In the case of a hierarchical cluster (i.e. one with service nodes) \ **makegocons**\  will determine
+which nodes will have their consoles accessed from the management node and which from a service node
+(based on the nodehm.conserver attribute).
+
+For openbmc which use ssh as the terminal session connection method, goconserver can help save the system
+resource as goconserver could handle the ssh connection within goruntine which is much light-weighted than the command process.
+
+\ **Note:**\  goconserver is a experimental feature, it will not be installed with xcat and only support the systemd based systems.
+Please download and setup the rpm or deb package manually. Release link:

+If a I<noderange> is specified, only the session in the specified scope will be affected, goconserver
+service will not be restarted and the the other session will not be disconnected. This is the advantage
+of goconserver compare with the conserver service with B<makeconservercf>.

+If B<-d> is specified, B<makegocons> will remove the session in the goconserver service.

+In the case of a hierarchical cluster (i.e. one with service nodes) B<makegocons> will determine
