copies of a package at different versions if the package is
imported normally and vendored by the standard library.

Vendored packages are internally renamed with a "vendor/" prefix
to preserve the invariant that all packages have distinct paths.
This is necessary to avoid compiler and linker conflicts. Adding
a "vendor/" prefix also maintains the invariant that standard
library packages begin with a dotless path element.

Files in this repo's `api/next` directory must have corresponding files in
`doc/next/*stdlib/*minor`.
The files should be in the subdirectory for the package with the new
API, and should be named after the issue number of the API proposal.
For example, if the directory `6-stdlib/99-minor` is present,
then an `api/next` file with the line

    pkg net/http, function F #12345

[time.Timer] and [time.Ticker].

First, `Timer`s and `Ticker`s that are no longer referred to by the program
become eligible for garbage collection immediately, even if their
`Stop` methods have not been called.
Earlier versions of Go did not collect unstopped `Timer`s until after
they had fired and never collected unstopped `Ticker`s.

Second, the timer channel associated with a `Timer` or `Ticker` is

On Windows, the mode bits reported by [Lstat] and [Stat] for
reparse points changed. Mount points no longer have [ModeSymlink] set,
and reparse points that are not symlinks, Unix sockets, or dedup files
now always have [ModeIrregular] set.
This behavior is controlled by the `winsymlink` setting.
For Go 1.23, it defaults to `winsymlink=1`.
