x/pkgsite: example code should be displayed as package main when rendering

[fishy]

What is the URL of the page with the issue?

https://pkg.go.dev/github.com/reddit/baseplate.go@v0.0.0-20200327042237-1365288992e4/thriftclient?tab=doc#example-package

What did you expect to see?

On godoc.org, the Example* functions will be renamed to main when rendering, for example: https://godoc.org/github.com/reddit/baseplate.go/thriftclient#example-package

What did you see instead?

On pkg.go.dev we kept the original Example function name in the code.

This issue was fixed in https://golang.org/cl/240685, and will be available soon on pkg.go.dev. It is currently behind the executable-examples experiment flag.

If you would like to test it out locally, you can run go run ./devtools/cmd/experiment create executable-examples.

The output should look like this:
