go/token: use atomics not Mutex for last file cache

Previously, FileSet would cache the last *File found by a lookup,
using a full (exclusive) mutex within FileSet.File, turning a logical
read operation into an update. This was one of the largest sources
of contention in gopls.  This change uses atomic load/store on the
'last' field without a mutex.

Also, in FileSet.AddFile, allocate the File outside the critical
section; all the other operations are typically cheap.

Fixes #53507
