Description

The newer HTML seems to include some new hit-type parameters

https://developers.google.com/analytics/devguides/collection/protocol/v1/parameters

This package is currently generated using an old HTML copy of the GA API docs, found here:

https://raw.githubusercontent.com/jpillora/go-ogle-analytics/master/generate/protocol-v1.html

It would be awesome if someone could update https://github.com/jpillora/go-ogle-analytics/blob/master/generate/protocol.go to support the new HTML.

protocol.go reads the HTML, copies relevant information into structs, then converts those structs into code, and finally, writes the code for each hit type into each of the type-*.go files found at the directory root.

Contributor guide

Research direction
Examine the current protocol.go file to understand how it reads and parses the HTML, then update the HTML source URL and adapt the parsing logic to handle the new parameters and hit types from the latest Google Analytics Measurement Protocol documentation.
