all: update standard-library dependencies at the start and end of each development cycle #36905

Open

Description

@bcmills

The x dependencies vendored into the standard library (via src/go.mod and src/cmd/go.mod) should be updated for each code freeze, so that we can apply any needed fixes to those dependencies without also pulling in unnecessary changes or requiring significant backporting work (see, for example, #36851).

This task, like #11811, #12042, and the API audit (#36167, #32813), should occur regularly in each development cycle. Probably we should update the dependencies at the beginning of each code freeze, and again when we reopen the tree at the end of each code freeze.
