Note that this replaces the approved Golang 1.17 Change

== Summary ==
Rebase of Golang package to upcoming version 1.18 in Fedora 36,
including the rebuild of all dependent packages(the pre-release
version of Go will be used for the rebuild if released version will
not be available at the time of the mass rebuild).
Will there be a separate go 1.18 mass rebuild in rawhide?
Or will the f36 mass rebuild just happen with go 1.18 (beta/rc) present?
== Contingency Plan ==
* Contingency mechanism:Reverting to golang version 1.16.X if
significant issues are discovered.
* Contingency deadline: Beta Freeze(?)
* Blocks release? No
* Blocks product? No
If there's a separate mass rebuild (or any test builds with go 1.18)
planned prior to the mass rebuild, that's a bit of a tight timeline,
with the winter holidays coming up and the F36 mass rebuild planned to
start on Jan. 19, 2021.
