Option to change the vendor directory name and location

[nekinie]

We have a multi-language codebase, which means the project structure is a little weird.

At a high level, it looks like this:

project/
    third-party/
        go/
        js/
    lib/
        go/
        js/
    video/
        mobile/
            android/
            ios/
        api/

We then use Bazel to tie everything back together meaning that we don't actually need (or use) GOPATH.

It would be great if dep could be configured to manage a different folder (in our case third-party/go) so we can keep all third-party code from all of our languages in a single place. On a side note, it would be great if dep worked outside of GOPATH but that should probably have its own ticket.

I understand that our use case is a little niche but I'm sure some of the larger organizations running multi-language monorepos have faced similar issues (probably fixed by custom tooling before dep existed)

I won't work on a solution until we have had some time to discuss this.

Thanks for your time 😄
