I always assumed that goblins were those of the mountains, that were once orcs but somewhat adapted to the dark places of the world, like fish who live in caves have no eyes or pigment because there is no need for it, While they acquire other better senses for living in the dark. So naturally goblins wouldnt like the light. While orcs were those of mordor your average orcs who still didnt like the light but could bare it.(The Reason they didnt like light was because where they are from is mordor and there is a constant shadow above) and uruk-hai were specially crafted, to be the killers of men, to withstand sunlight, and not be so...er...run-of-the-mill as orcs were, kind of like special genetic engineered orcs if you would. But those are just my thoughts.
