doc/go1.16: add release note for disallowing non-ASCII import paths

golang.org/cl/251878 disallowed non-ASCII characters in import paths,
in module mode. They were already disallowed in module paths, so this
change just extended the restriction to the package subdirectory of
the module. Update the release notes to alert users of this change.

Fixes #43052
