Improve toolchain handling (#460)

* Configure environment to avoid toolchain installs

Force `go` to always use the local toolchain (i.e. the one the one that
shipped with the go command being run) via setting the `GOTOOLCHAIN`
environment variable to `local`[1]:

> When GOTOOLCHAIN is set to local, the go command always runs the
bundled Go toolchain.

This is how things are setup in the official Docker images (e.g.[2], see
also the discussion around that change[3]). The motivation behind this
is to:

* Reduce duplicate work: if the `toolchain` version in `go.mod` was
  greated than the `go` version, the version from the `go` directive
  would be installed, then Go would detect the `toolchain` version and
  additionally install that
* Avoid Unexpected behaviour: if you specify this action runs with some Go
  version (e.g. `1.21.0`) but your go.mod contains a `toolchain` or `go`
  directive for a newer version (e.g. `1.22.0`) then, without any other
  configuration/environment setup, any go commands will be run using go
  `1.22.0`

This will be a **breaking change** for some workflows. Given a `go.mod`
like:

    module proj

    go 1.22.0

Then running any `go` command, e.g. `go mod tidy`, in an environment
where only go versions before `1.22.0` were installed would previously
trigger a toolchain download of Go `1.22.0` and that version being used
to execute the command. With this change the above would error out with
something like:

> go: go.mod requires go >= 1.22.0 (running go 1.21.7;
GOTOOLCHAIN=local)

[2] dae3405a32/Dockerfile-linux.template (L163)
[3] https://github.com/docker-library/golang/issues/472

* Prefer installing version from `toolchain` directive

Prefer this over the version from the `go` directive. Per the docs[1]

> The toolchain line declares a suggested toolchain to use with the
module or workspace

It seems reasonable to use this, since running this action in a
directory containing a `go.mod` (or `go.work`) suggests the user is
wishing to work _with the module or workspace_.

Issue: https://github.com/actions/setup-go/issues/457

* squash! Configure environment to avoid toolchain installs

Only modify env if `GOTOOLCHAIN` is not set

* squash! Prefer installing version from `toolchain` directive

Avoid installing from `toolchain` if `GOTOOLCHAIN` is `local`, also
better regex for matching toolchain directive
