Current Behavior

Meshery and its components all use golang 1.21.8 currently. Some packages that Meshery relies upon are no longer compatible with 1.21, but require 1.22 or higher. For example.

go: downloading github.com/99designs/gqlgen v0.17.57
go: github.com/99designs/[email protected] requires go >= 1.22.5 (running go 1.21.8; GOTOOLCHAIN=go1.21.8)
go: github.com/99designs/[email protected] requires go >= 1.22.5 (running go 1.21.8; GOTOOLCHAIN=go1.21.8)
make: *** [graphql] Error 1

Desired Behavior

All components within the Meshery project to support the latest version of Golang (1.23.4).

Implementation

1. github workflows: Uniformly, upgrade Meshery Server and all its components workflows to Golang 1.23.4.
2. makefile variables
3. github repo secret (if applicable)
