programs written to the Go 1 specification will continue to compile and run
correctly, unchanged, over the lifetime of that specification.
More generally, as adjustments are made and features added to the language,
the compatibility guarantee ensures that a Go program that works with a
specific Go language version will continue to work with any subsequent version.
