cmd/go: restore @latest behavior and support @upgrade in 'go get'

'go get path@latest' may now downgrade a module required at a
pre-release or pseudo-version newer than the latest released
version. This restores the 1.12 behavior and the ability to easily
roll back from a temporary development version.

'go get path@upgrade' is like @latest but will not downgrade.
If no version suffix is specified ('go get path'), @upgrade is
implied.

Fixes #32846
