cmd/go/internal/vcs: use git log to avoid unnecessary objects

"git show" by default shows the diff from the previous commit. "-s"
suppress all output from the diff machinery. But it will still try to
fetch the relevant objects, which may be unavailable if the repository
is a partial clone.

Use "git log" instead, which only needs the commit object.

Fixes #65339
