cmd/go: clarify that -coverpkg uses import paths
This change amends the long-form help output for 'go help build' and
'go help testflag' to specify that the '-coverpkg' flag operates
explicitly on import paths as well as package names. Import paths are
fundamental for precise specification of packages versus unqualified
package names, and the naming of the flag '-coverpkg' and its original
documentation leads a user to assume that it only operates on the
simple, unqualified package name form. The situation warrants
clarification.
Fixes #69653
