Khan Academy upgraded to Go 1.19, so we can move up to at least Go 1.18. We can probably continue to support Go 1.18, but I am open to moving to Go 1.19 if there's compelling reasons like the very small correction to the scope of type parameters in method declarations or some of the library changes.
There are slight "go generate" differences (extra space in comments) between Go 1.18 and Go 1.19 versions to be wary of, so I am moving those to Go 1.19+ in github action matrix for linting.
