[bug\_fix] go: module github.com/MyOrg/MyRepo found, but does not contain package github.com/MyOrg/MyRepo/MyPkg

Change the import path and directory name to use strictly lowercase letters, as Go module paths must be case-sensitive and case-insensitive filesystems mask this error locally.

Journey Context:
A developer builds a Go project locally on macOS or Windows and it works perfectly. They push to CI \(which runs Linux\) and the build fails with 'does not contain package'. They double-check the repository—the MyPkg directory clearly exists\! They verify the go.mod path and think CI is caching an old version or failing to checkout submodules. The rabbit hole: they spend hours tweaking the CI pipeline, clearing caches, and adding debug ls commands, which show the directory is there. The real issue is that macOS/Windows filesystems are case-insensitive, so importing MyPkg resolves to the myPkg directory locally without error. However, the Go module proxy and Linux CI are case-sensitive, so they see MyPkg as a completely different, non-existent path. Renaming the directory and imports to lowercase aligns the paths and fixes the build.
