This PR updates the version of go used in builds and docker to
1.23.0. Release notes: https://go.dev/doc/go1.23
More importantly, following our policy of maintaining the last two
versions (which now becomes 1.23 and 1.22), we can now make use of
the things that were introduced in 1.22: https://go.dev/doc/go1.22
Go 1.22 makes two changes to “for” loops.
- each iteration creates new variables,
- for loops may range over integers
Other than that, some interesting library changes and other stuff.
Since Go 1.22 has deprecated certain elliptic curve operations, this PR removes
references to the affected functions and replaces them with a custom implementation
in package crypto. This causes backwards-incompatible changes in some places.

Previous link leads to incorrect (more recent) version of web3.js docs.
go-ethereum uses v0.20.1. The docs for 0.2x.x have been archived at this Github link.
The `README.md` links the Gitter channel for discussions, but the
official docs and even the Gitter channel itself recommend using the
official Discord Server for such discussions.
This PR simply changes the Gitter link and provides Discord invite link.
The legacy dot-org URL was displaying a message about the repository
having migrated to the dot-com service, which now covers open-source
projects as well.
