[bug\_fix] go: ... module ... found, but does not contain package .../v2

If you are the consumer, change your import path to exclude the \`/v2\` suffix and use \`@v2.0.0\+incompatible\`. If you are the module author, update the module's go.mod to \`module github.com/foo/bar/v2\` and update all internal imports to include the \`/v2\` suffix.

Journey Context:
A developer tries to use a v2 version of a library. They add \`import github.com/foo/bar/v2\` and run \`go get github.com/foo/bar/[email protected]\`. The command fails with 'module github.com/foo/[email protected] found, but does not contain package github.com/foo/bar/v2'. They check the repository and confirm the v2.0.0 tag exists and the code is there. They clear the module cache and try different tags, but the error persists. The rabbit hole reveals that the repository's go.mod says \`module github.com/foo/bar\` \(missing the \`/v2\` suffix\). Go's import compatibility rule requires the module path in go.mod to match the import path exactly. Because the author didn't update the module path for the major version bump, Go treats it as an incompatible v1 module.
