bazel: use prebuilt Go toolchain (go.dev/dl) (#2796)
We had to switch to a Go toolchain from nixpkgs,
since prebuilt Go toolchain versions were not usable on NixOS.
Since Go 1.21, the prebuilt Go toolchain is statically linked
and works out of the box.

Bump Go version

govulncheck from the bazel check target will fail if our code is vulnerable, which is often the case when a patch version was released with security fixes.

Steps

Replace "1.xx.x" with the new version in WORKSPACE.bazel:

go_register_toolchains(version = "1.xx.x")
