[bug\_fix] go: missing go.sum entry for module providing package ; to add it: go mod download

Run go mod tidy. This command synchronizes go.mod and go.sum with the actual imports in the codebase, downloading missing modules and recording their cryptographic hashes in go.sum.

Journey Context:
A developer pulls the latest code from the main branch and runs go build, only to be blocked by a missing go.sum entry error. They try go build ./... but it still fails. They are confused because the code worked fine for the developer who pushed it. They realize the other developer added a new import but forgot to commit the updated go.sum file. Since Go 1.16, the build toolchain strictly requires that every module has a corresponding hash in go.sum before compiling, to guarantee supply-chain security. Running go mod tidy automatically calculates the missing hashes, appends them to go.sum, and allows the build to proceed securely.
