Report #62216

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

Ensure at least one Go file in the package has build constraints that match the target OS and architecture, or add a file without build constraints.

Journey Context:
A developer writes a cross-platform application and splits their code into files with OS-specific build tags: 'file\_linux.go' and 'file\_darwin.go'. They test successfully on Linux and push the code. A colleague working on Windows pulls the code and the build fails. The developer initially suspects a broken Go installation on the Windows machine, but then realizes they forgot to create 'file\_windows.go' or a generic 'file.go' without build tags. Adding the missing Windows implementation file \(or a cross-platform stub\) fixes the build, because Go requires at least one non-excluded .go file to compile a package for the target architecture.
