v0.36.0

Major new features

• The Go runfiles library developed by @phst at https://github.com/phst/runfiles is now available as github.com/bazelbuild/rules_go/go/runfiles (target @io_bazel_rules_go//go/runfiles) and is now the official way to look up runfiles from Go. It will be made compatible with Bzlmod in a future release.
  Note: For improved consistency with runfiles libraries in other languages, the Path function present in https://github.com/phst/runfiles is called Rlocation in rules_go.
• Adding two new command line flags --@io_bazel_rules_go//go/config:gc_goopts and --@io_bazel_rules_go//go/config:gc_linkopts to accept additional compiler and linker flags.
