WIP - Suggesting changes (take2)

    This is not yet completed, still working on things. Eventually the plan
    is to provide the following changes

    - restructure repo to be more aligned with https://github.com/golang-standards/project-layout
    - add k8s probes
    - modifications (golang range loops, etc) to follow some golang
    practices
