This PR updates the version of go used in builds and docker to
1.23.0. Release notes: https://go.dev/doc/go1.23
More importantly, following our policy of maintaining the last two
versions (which now becomes 1.23 and 1.22), we can now make use of
the things that were introduced in 1.22: https://go.dev/doc/go1.22
Go 1.22 makes two changes to “for” loops.
- each iteration creates new variables,
- for loops may range over integers
Other than that, some interesting library changes and other stuff.
Since Go 1.22 has deprecated certain elliptic curve operations, this PR removes
references to the affected functions and replaces them with a custom implementation
in package crypto. This causes backwards-incompatible changes in some places.

This adds support for building statically-linked executables using ci.go.
Static linking is enabled by default in Docker builds, making it possible to
use the geth executable in any Docker image, regardless of the Linux
distribution the Dockerfile is based on.

This PR improves the docker build speed for repeated builds where go.mod and go.sum do no change, by placing the downloaded dependencies in a lower layer
