Update Go toolchain from 1.21 to 1.24.0

[sebrandon1]

Go Version Update Recommended

This repository is currently using Go version 1.21, which is below the OCP recommended version (1.24.0).

Current Status

• Current Version: go1.21
• Recommended Version: 1.24.0
• Latest Stable: 1.26.0
• Status: ⚠️ Outdated (below OCP recommended)

Reference Examples

• Kubernetes Go Version: 1.25.0 (kubernetes/kubernetes/go.mod)
• OpenShift Kubernetes Go Version: 1.24.0 (openshift/kubernetes/go.mod)

Recommended Action

Please update the toolchain directive in go.mod to use a stable version of Go. We recommend toolchain go1.24.0, which is the version used by OpenShift Kubernetes.

Note: The go directive in go.mod is a minimum language compatibility marker, not the build version. The toolchain directive (Go 1.21+) controls the actual Go version used for builds. Updating toolchain avoids cascading effects on downstream importers.
