Request: Normalize Go build workflow #1697

Unlike other Go projects, bearer breaks fundamental aspects of the build process.

Please enhance the project structure, so that a simple go install ./... run from the project top level directory, is able to compile and install the bearer CLI to $GOPATH/bin, or go install github.com/Bearer/bearer/cmd/bearer@latest from any working directory.

Please could you share a little more detail about what error/behaviour you are getting?

From an initial investigation on my side:

go install ./... seems to work
go install <repo> fails because we have replace directives in the module file, which don't seem to be supported by remote go installs

Is the replace error the only issue you have? Did a local install also fail?
