fix(ci): build from local checkout instead of proxying private module (#279)

Remove gomod.proxy: true from .goreleaser.yaml. With a private repo,
the Go module proxy can't fetch the module, and the fallback to
git ls-remote fails because no GitHub credentials are wired into
go's child process — it dies with "could not read Username for
'https://github.com': terminal prompts disabled".

Goreleaser now builds from the local checkout (which the workflow
already fetches with fetch-depth: 0). This drops the "build from a
proxy-published immutable version" guarantee, but for a private
auto-release project that benefit is small.

Every release since at least v2.3.1 had zero binary assets attached
because of this — release-please succeeded but goreleaser never did.
