[bug\_fix] go: @: reading go.mod: no matching versions for query ""

Set the \`GOPRIVATE\` environment variable to match the hostname of the private repository \(e.g., \`export GOPRIVATE=github.com/MyOrg/\*\`\) so the Go toolchain fetches it directly from the source rather than the public proxy.

Journey Context:
A developer sets up a CI pipeline for a project that depends on an internal private repository. The build fails with a 'no matching versions' error. The developer verifies the version exists in their private git host and that their SSH keys work, so they are baffled why Go can't find it. They might try updating git credentials or manually cloning the repo. The rabbit-hole occurs because, by default, Go routes all module fetches through the public proxy \(\`proxy.golang.org\`\) and checksum database, which obviously doesn't have private code. Setting \`GOPRIVATE\` tells the Go toolchain to bypass the public proxy and fetch directly from the version control system, using the developer's existing git credentials.
