Bryan C. Mills a53dc4c1ce cmd/go/internal/modload: use (*loadPkg).mod only to indicate the module from which the package was loaded
The (*loadPkg).mod field normally indicates the module from which the
package was loaded. However, if the package was missing, we previously
used the mod field to instead store the module from which we intend to
load the package next time around.

That sort of dual use makes the semantics (and synchronization) of the
mod field much more complex to reason about. For example, it would be
nice to have the invariant that the mod field is always one of the
modules in the overall build list, or one of the modules selected in
the overall module graph. Similarly, it would be nice to have the
invariant that the version indicated by the mod field can coexist with
(without upgrading) all of the other versions indicated in the mod
fields of other packages.

This repurposing of the mod field appears to be solely in the service
of storing the module when resolving missing imports. To keep
conceptually-separate fields separate, I have changed
resolveMissingImports to store a slice of package–module pairs,
instead of just packages that need to be revisited.

This may increase allocation pressure slightly if we have many
unresolved packages, but most packages are not unresolved, and it
seems worth the cost to use a little extra memory if it means we can
reason more clearly about the (quite complex) behaviors of the module
loader.

For #36460
