Pseudo-versions are recognised with golang.org/x/mod/module.IsPseudoVersion, a new direct dependency. It is pinned at v0.29.0, the version the module graph already selected; go.sum is unchanged.

Fixes https://git.eeqj.de/sneak/vaultik/issues/422.
A `go install` of a tag sets no linker flags, so the binary reported `dev`. `cli.Entry` now calls `globals.FillUnsetFromBuildInfo`, which fills in the version, commit and commit date the linker flags left unset from the build info Go records in the binary. A main module version of `(devel)` counts as none. `vcs.time` is cut to a date, as the `Makefile` stamps it. Builds through the `Makefile`, `script/docker` and goreleaser are unchanged: their linker flags win.
What the diff does not show:
- Since Go 1.24, a plain `go build` in a checkout records a pseudo-version, and `+dirty` for a modified tree. Taking that version would have made such builds count as releases, so `IsDevVersion` now treats Go pseudo-versions and `+dirty` as development builds.
- Pseudo-versions are recognised with `golang.org/x/mod/module.IsPseudoVersion`, a new direct dependency. It is pinned at `v0.29.0`, the version the module graph already selected; `go.sum` is unchanged.
- `README.md`: the sentence saying a binary built without git metadata reports `dev` was false after this change and is rewritten. The list of development-build versions gains pseudo-versions and `+dirty`.

FAIL (needs-rework). The build-info fallback and the pseudo-version handling are correct. The findings are in the README and two doc comments.
README.md, section "version numbers": the sentence this PR edits, which begins "vaultik version calls a build a development build when its version is", runs to 43 words and chains six version forms with commas. Acceptable: one short lead sentence, the development-build forms as a bulleted list (with the -dirty and +dirty suffixes as a final item), then a separate sentence: "Only a plain tag, such as v1.0.0 or 1.0.0, is a release."
README.md, same section: the rewrite deletes "A binary built without git metadata reports dev", but only part of that sentence became false. A make build outside a git checkout, or a plain docker build . of a tree without .git, still reports dev, because script/version and the Dockerfile both fall back to it. The new list says dev only for plain go install and go build, and the README now never mentions these two builds. Acceptable: one short sentence saying that make outside a git checkout and docker build . without .git stamp dev.
internal/cli/entry.go (the Entry doc comment) and internal/globals/globals.go (the FromBuildInfo doc comment): "takes the version, commit and commit date the linker flags left unset from the Go build info" and "with each one the linker flags left unset taken from info" both misread on first pass, because "left unset from the Go build info" looks like one phrase. The Entry comment also points to globals.FromBuildInfo, but the function Entry calls is globals.UseBuildInfo. Acceptable: plain sentences that name the function called. For example: "Entry first calls globals.UseBuildInfo, which fills in the version, commit and commit date that the linker flags did not set." and "FromBuildInfo returns version, commit and commitDate. Each one that still holds its default (dev or empty for the version, unknown for the others) is replaced by the value Go recorded in info."

README.md, section "version numbers", last paragraph: "If script/version cannot be run at all, make stops with an error instead of building an unversioned binary, and a binary that somehow carries an empty version string still reports itself as a development build." runs to 35 words, and its second half is false after this change. An empty stamped version is now replaced by the version Go recorded, so a go build of a clean checkout of a tag, with linker flags that stamp an empty version, reports that tag and is called a release. Acceptable: two sentences, for example "If script/version cannot be run at all, make stops with an error instead of building an unversioned binary." and "A binary stamped with an empty version reports the version Go recorded in it; if Go recorded none, it is a development build."

Acceptable: names that say only unset values are filled, for example FillUnsetFromBuildInfo for the function Entry calls and FillUnset for the one that takes info, with the Entry comment, both doc comments and the test name TestFromBuildInfo updated to match.
Rule suppressed: the opening of README.md is not judged sentence by sentence, because the rewrite in #399 replaces it.

`dev`. Version, commit and commit date that the linker flags leave
unset now come from the build info Go records. Go records a

modified checkout; `IsDevVersion` now counts both as development
builds, using `golang.org/x/mod`.
