[bug\_fix] go: github.com/foo/[email protected]: invalid version: go.mod has post-v1 tag

Update the module path in \`go.mod\` to include the major version suffix \(e.g., \`module github.com/foo/bar/v2\`\) and update all internal imports accordingly.

Journey Context:
A maintainer releases a major breaking change for their library by pushing a \`v2.0.0\` git tag. Consumers trying to run \`go get github.com/foo/[email protected]\` are met with an 'invalid version' error. The maintainer is baffled because the tag exists and the code compiles. They dig into the Go versioning specification and discover the 'Import Compatibility Rule': if a package is imported at version v2 or higher, its module path must reflect the major version. Because the \`go.mod\` file still declared \`module github.com/foo/bar\`, Go assumed it was a v0/v1 module and rejected the v2.0.0 tag. The maintainer updates the \`go.mod\` to \`module github.com/foo/bar/v2\`, updates all internal imports within the repository to use the \`/v2\` suffix, and retags the release, resolving the issue for consumers.
