[bug\_fix] build constraints exclude all Go files in

Ensure the package contains at least one \`.go\` file without build constraints that exclude the current OS/Architecture, or add a stub file with a matching build constraint for the target environment.

Journey Context:
A developer writes a package with OS-specific implementations, creating \`process\_linux.go\` with \`//go:build linux\` and \`process\_windows.go\` with \`//go:build windows\`. They attempt to run unit tests locally on their macOS machine, but the compiler throws the 'build constraints exclude all Go files' error. They check the directory and see the files exist, but realize all files have build tags excluding Darwin. They add a \`process\_darwin.go\` with a Darwin-specific implementation, or a \`process\_stub.go\` with no build tags for fallback. The fix works because Go requires at least one valid source file for a referenced package to compile, regardless of the target architecture.
