cmd/go: put user ldflags at the end of the linker invocation

If the user provided a key but no value via -ldflag -X,
another linker flag was used as the value.

Placing the user's flags at the end avoids this problem.
It also provides the user the opportunity to
override existing linker flags.

Fixes #8810.
