[Bug 2009812] [NEW] Remove golang-1.19 from lunar

Public bug reported:

I think we don't have clear policy currently for removing old versions
of golang.

Basically I want to keep the old version as long as it's still supported
by upstream. But remove them before release (to keep only default
version in one release). This is mostly what we do in Debian. Because
some members want all versions that upstream has released, are available
in snapshot.d.o.

I open this bug to establish the practice. And I might move the
conclusion to wiki as well.
