cmd/go: avoid accidental downgrades in 'go get' with latest and patch

Currently, 'go get -u' and 'go get -u=patch' avoid accidentally
downgrading modules by preventing upgrades in two cases:

1) If the current version is a prerelease that is semantically later
   than the "latest" or "patch" version.
2) If the current version is a pseudoversion that is chronologically
   newer than the "latest" or "patch" version.

With this change, 'go get m@latest' and 'go get m@patch' prevent
downgrades using the same checks.

Also: 'go get m@patch' now works if m is a module path but not a
package path (i.e., there is no package in the module root directory).

Fixes #30634
Fixes #32537
