  [SRU] backport golang-1.24 to jammy, noble, oracular and plucky

Bug description:
  [Impact]

  * containers stack (runc-app, containerd-app, docker.io-app) is going to update in all supported
     releases, which requires new version of golang compiler. The containers stack will be updated in
     focal, jammy, noble and oracular so we need golang-1.24 as well.
  * It will also be easier to meet minimum bootstrapping requirements for later releases
  * For Plucky, the current version is 1.24.2, upgrading to a newer microrelease will bring in the beneficial CVE fixes which can be seen in detail at https://go.dev/doc/devel/release.

  [Test Plan]

   * Install golang-1.24 in affected version
   * Add /usr/lib/go-1.24/bin to PATH
   * Build a Go package, for example the runc-app. The result should be successful.
     + git-ubuntu clone runc-app
     + replace golang-1.23-go with golang-1.24-go in d/control file
     + replace /usr/lib/go-1.23/bin with /usr/lib/go-1.24/bin in d/rules file

  [ Where problems could occur ]

   * For Plucky, since the current default go version is 1.24 so upgrading the default to a newer microrelease might cause build failures in reverse deps for plucky but since the microrelease updates contain majorly CVE fixes it should not be too big of an issue. 
   * This is a new package in archive for other targets, which doesn't have impact on existing packages.

  [Other Info]

   * No
