build: upgrade to go 1.19 (#25726)
This changes the CI / release builds to use the latest Go version. It also
upgrades golangci-lint to a newer version compatible with Go 1.19.

In Go 1.19, godoc has gained official support for links and lists. The
syntax for code blocks in doc comments has changed and now requires a
leading tab character. gofmt adapts comments to the new syntax
automatically, so there are a lot of comment re-formatting changes in this
PR. We need to apply the new format in order to pass the CI lint stage with
Go 1.19.

With the linter upgrade, I have decided to disable 'gosec' - it produces
too many false-positive warnings. The 'deadcode' and 'varcheck' linters
have also been removed because golangci-lint warns about them being
unmaintained. 'unused' provides similar coverage and we already have it
enabled, so we don't lose much with this change.

Fuzzers

To run a fuzzer locally, you need go-fuzz installed.

First build a fuzzing-binary out of the selected package:

(cd ./rlp && CGO_ENABLED=0 go-fuzz-build .)

That command should generate a rlp-fuzz.zip in the rlp/ directory. If you are already in that directory, you can do

[user@work rlp]$ go-fuzz

Otherwise:

go-fuzz -bin ./rlp/rlp-fuzz.zip

Notes

Once a 'crasher' is found, the fuzzer tries to avoid reporting the same vector twice, so stores the fault in the suppressions folder. Thus, if you e.g. make changes to fix a bug, you should remove all data from the suppressions-folder, to verify that the issue is indeed resolved.

Also, if you have only one and the same exit-point for multiple different types of test, the suppression can make the fuzzer hide different types of errors. So make sure that each type of failure is unique (for an example, see the rlp fuzzer, where a counter i is used to differentiate between failures:

		if !bytes.Equal(input, output) {
			panic(fmt.Sprintf("case %d: encode-decode is not equal, \ninput : %x\noutput: %x", i, input, output))
		}
