Maybe a silly question, but is there a way to restart only the current sub-goal in coq?

Restart. restarts the whole proof.

And is there an undo tactic that reverses the effect of the most recently applied tactic?

There is a command Undo (not a tactic)

Is it considered part of Vernacular?

According to https://coq.inria.fr/about-coq, looks to be (it helps to build an interactive proof).
But .v files should not contain Undoor Restart commands (except for a docmentation purpose).
In Proof General, for instance, I use cursor movements for undoing proof parts, and the saved .vis clean from such commands.

That explains the 'Use IDE navigation instead' message coqtop shows on using Undo..
