fix library installation command using go install #1

Closed hidetatz closed 2 years ago

go install can install an executable binary, but if the version suffix is missing, it tries to install the given package with module-aware mode. (ref: New module changes in Go 1.16 - The Go Programming Language)

As a result, if the command is run outside of any Go module, it shows the below error:

$ cd $HOME # not inside of any module
$ go install github.com/kei6u/kubectl-explore
go install: version is required when current directory is not in a module
    Try 'go install github.com/kei6u/kubectl-explore@latest' to install the latest version

By appending the suffix ( @0.1.0 or even @latest should be OK), it successfully installs the command.
