[bug\_fix] go: malformed module path "github.com/MyOrg/MyRepo": invalid char 'M'

Change the \`module\` directive in \`go.mod\` to use all lowercase letters \(e.g., \`module github.com/myorg/myrepo\`\), and update all import paths accordingly.

Journey Context:
A developer creates a \`go.mod\` file manually or via an IDE for a GitHub repository containing uppercase letters in its owner or repo name. They write \`module github.com/MyOrg/MyRepo\`. However, when they try to \`go build\` or \`go test\`, the compiler throws a malformed module path error. They might initially think their Git remote is misconfigured or that they need to rename the GitHub repository. They might even try wrapping the path in quotes. The root cause is that Go module paths must be valid DNS names or paths, and DNS is case-insensitive, so Go enforces lowercase to avoid ambiguity and ensure package identity. The fix works because making the path lowercase conforms to the Go module path specification, allowing the toolchain to resolve the module correctly without conflicting with DNS case-insensitivity rules.
