Go Version Support

[YOU54F]

Hey hey,

EOL Dates

https://endoflife.date/go

1.19/1.20 are the latest supported versions. 1.18 ended supported.

• We should update CI to test against the latest supported versions 1.19 and 1.20
• At which point to we want to drop testing of 1.18 - shall we just follow go's schedule and drop testing in CI now.
• We should make a nice compat matrix

Go Version	Supported	Pact Go Version	End of Support Date
1.20.x	Yes	TBC
1.19.x	Yes	Up to 2.x
1.18.x	Yes	Up to 2.x
1.17.x	Yes	Up to 2.x

Dependabot Config

now resolved, see #314

I'd like to setup the dependabot config, and clear out some of the old alerts as they will be using the v1 codebase but merging into master which is now the v2 mainline.

I drop a setup to

• Update GH action tags
• Update Go Deps

Targeting

master for v2 and future
v1.x.x for v1.

Notes:-

-Should we consider an end date of support for the v1.x.x branch.
