Report #3079

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

Add a \`.go\` file in the package directory without OS/architecture-specific build constraints, or ensure the existing build constraints \(e.g., \`//go:build linux\`\) cover the target environment where the build is running.

Journey Context:
A developer is writing a cross-platform library and splits the implementation into \`sock\_linux.go\` and \`sock\_windows.go\` using \`//go:build linux\` and \`//go:build windows\` tags. When they run \`go test\` on their macOS machine, the build fails, claiming all Go files are excluded. They are confused because the directory clearly contains Go files. The root cause is that the Go compiler evaluates build tags per file for the target OS/Architecture. If a package is imported, at least one \`.go\` file must satisfy the build constraints for the current target. Since macOS is neither Linux nor Windows, all files are excluded, making the package non-existent to the compiler. Adding a \`sock\_darwin.go\` or a generic \`sock.go\` without build tags provides the compiler with the necessary code for the macOS target.
