Add -count=1 to the canonical Go make test example (closes #44)

The canonical Go `test` target in `REPO_POLICIES.md` omitted `-count=1`, so
Go replayed cached successful results and the target could exit 0 having
executed no test. Every repo that copied it inherited the false green.

Both invocations get the flag; the rerun needs it so a failure is
reproduced rather than replayed.

 # Completed Steps
 
-- 2026-08-31: Migrated the canonical `.golangci.yml` from the deprecated
-  `gomodguard` to `gomodguard_v2`: the old linter is disabled by name (which is
-  what silences the deprecation warning), the successor is named explicitly in
-  `linters.enable`, and it carries a `blocked` module list drawn only from
-  decisions already recorded in the Go package defaults.
+- 2026-08-10: Added `-count=1` to both `go test` invocations in the canonical Go
+  `make test` example in `REPO_POLICIES.md`, so the target cannot report a
+  cached pass it did not earn.

   config already deployed byte-identical across the org's Go repos (settings
