This isn't a bug but a feature request. I'd like the go_deps module extension to expose the mapping between every Go module it bazelizes and its resolved version. This would be extremely useful for external bookkeeping (for e.g. we can easily communicate to CI systems that rely on native package manager metadata, precisely what version of each Go module was used in the build).

I'll shortly create a sample PR demonstrating what we might need although I'm not claiming that it would the optimal mechanism to surface this data.
