Error: invalid version string

[lukasmalkmus]

I got the following error when setting up fresh CI for a project:

Error: invalid version string 'v1.38.0 // indirect', expected format v1.2 or v1.2.3

I think it comes from a change I initially implemented with a PR a while ago, if I'm not mistaken: Getting the version from the go.mod. This is helpful if a tools.go file is used to tagged and track tool-only dependencies.

Now, with Go 1.17, even when not using a tools.go file, golangci-lint might still show up in the go.mod file, but with the // indirect suffix.

Easy fix seems to be to ignore lines with that suffix.
