### Timer changes

Go 1.23 makes two significant changes to the implementation of
[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.

# Release Notes

The `initial` and `next` subdirectories of this directory are for release notes.

## For developers

Release notes should be added to `next` by editing existing files or creating
new files. **Do not add RELNOTE=yes comments in CLs.** Instead, add a file to
the CL (or ask the author to do so).

At the end of the development cycle, the files will be merged by being
concatenated in sorted order by pathname. Files in the directory matching the

next:
	// Skip newlines.
	var tok lex.ScanToken
	for {
		tok = p.nextToken()
		// We save the line number here so error messages from this instruction
		// are labeled with this line. Otherwise we complain after we've absorbed
		// the terminating newline and the line numbers are off by one in errors.
		p.lineNum = p.lex.Line()
		switch tok {
		case '\n', ';':
			continue
		case scanner.EOF:
			return "", "", nil, false
		}

		}
		if err := tw.writeRawFile(name, data, flag, FormatPAX); err != nil || isGlobal {
			return err // Global headers return here
		}
	}

	// Pack the main header.
	var f formatter // Ignore errors since they are expected
	fmtStr := func(b []byte, s string) { f.formatString(b, toASCII(s)) }
	blk := tw.templateV7Plus(hdr, fmtStr, f.formatOctal)
	blk.setFormat(FormatPAX)
