Description

What did you do?

Tried to find examples/tests for the identifier under my cursor.

What did you expect to see?

Some type of GoExamples or GoTests command to navigate to relevant example/tests.

What did you see instead?

For examples, I had to open the http://pkg.go.dev and for tests I need to manually search for them.

Contributor guide

Research direction
Familiarize with gopls internal commands and LSP protocol. Look at existing code actions like 'go to definition' or 'references' for patterns. Identify where to register a new command and how to compute example/test locations using the 'go/doc' package.
