[release-branch.go1.9] cmd/go: restrict meta imports to valid schemes

Before this change, when using -insecure, we permitted any meta import
repo root as long as it contained "://". When not using -insecure, we
restrict meta import repo roots to be valid URLs. People may depend on
that somehow, so permit meta import repo roots to be invalid URLs, but
require them to have valid schemes per RFC 3986.

Fixes #23867
