Unable to go install tagged version since introduction of v prefix

[ileitch]

$ go install github.com/bazelbuild/buildtools/buildifier@6.1.1
go: downloading github.com/bazelbuild/buildtools v0.0.0-20230425225026-3dcc8d67e8ea

Then for every version after the introduction of the v prefix:

$ go install github.com/bazelbuild/buildtools/buildifier@v6.4.0
go: github.com/bazelbuild/buildtools/buildifier@v6.4.0: github.com/bazelbuild/buildtools@v6.4.0: invalid version: module contains a go.mod file, so module path must match major version ("github.com/bazelbuild/buildtools/v6")

$ go version
go version go1.21.6 darwin/arm64

Same issue here. I'm trying to install buildifier in a Docker image meant to be quite stable for our CI.

Files not being formatted properly fails our build on purpose, so having unpredictable behavior changes from buildifier because we have to rebuild our images with latest is a non-starter.

I guess we're stuck with version 6.1.1 for now
