If we're going to do this, we should probably raise the baseline in
go-module.eclass more often so that not every ebuilds will find
themselves needing to specify the dependency for some ancient go
version that's long gone from the tree.

Right now go-module.eclass has:

   BDEPEND=">=dev-lang/go-1.20:="

But the oldest that we have in the tree is go-1.24.
