Michael Matloob c0ee2fd4e3 cmd/go: explicitly reject module paths "go" and "toolchain"
The module paths "go" and "toolchain" are reserved for the dependency on
the go and toolchain versions. Check for those paths in go mod init to
create modules, go mod edit, and in the module loader and return an
error when attempting to use those paths for a work module. Trying to
init or load a work module with a go.mod that specifies the module path
"go" panics since Go 1.21 (when the toolchain switching logic and the
implicit dependencies on the "go" module was introduced), and this
change returns a proper error instead of panicking.

Fixes #74784
