Jakob Unterwurzacher 69d88505fd go mod: declare module version v2
Our git version is v2+ for some time now, but go.mod
still declared v1. Hopefully making both match makes
https://pkg.go.dev/github.com/rfjakob/gocryptfs/v2 work.

All the import paths have been fixed like this:

  find . -name \*.go | xargs sed -i s%github.com/rfjakob/gocryptfs/%github.com/rfjakob/gocryptfs/v2/%
