cmd/go: remove subcommand prefix from error messages For example, errors that started before with "go mod download: " now start with "go: " instead. Previously, we had a mix of errors with and without subcommand prefixes, even in packages like modload that ostensibly aren't tied to any specific command. This change makes usage more consistent, which makes refactoring much easier. These prefixes didn't add useful information: the user should know the subcommand they just ran. But see CL 347152 for an attempt at making the opposite change: always printing the subcommand prefix. Note that there are a number of errors that don't start with "go: " or any subcommand prefix. This CL doesn't affect those.
