misc/vim/readme.txt: workaround weird OS X vim bug.

The vi bundled with OS X has a weird bug in that if you turn off
filetype in .vimrc when it's not turned on, even a clean exit of
vi will return 1 which breaks almost everything.

While we're at it, add hint to change $GOROOT to its actual value
in .vimrc.

Fixes #7865.
