buildGo{Module,Package}: add `tags` argument

Simpler method of setting tags rather than using some combination of buildFlags, buildFlagsArray, preBuild, etc

Using `lib.concatStringsSep ","` as space separated tags are deprecated in go.

 Both `buildGoModule` and `buildGoPackage` can be tweaked to behave slightly differently, if the following attributes are used:
 
-### `buildFlagsArray` and `buildFlags`: {#ex-goBuildFlags-noarray}
-
-These attributes set build flags supported by `go build`. We recommend using `buildFlagsArray`.

 ### `ldflags` {#var-go-ldflags}
 
 Arguments to pass to the Go linker tool via the `-ldflags` argument of `go build`. The most common use case for this argument is to make the resulting executable aware of its own version. For example:
