Packages for Fedora and EPEL need to be built with whatever Go version is being
shipped at that moment.

If a package requires a newer Go version, then it's up to the packager to
workaround it (reverting a change, disabling features, working with Golang
mantainers, not updating the package, ...), but using a custom Go is not an
acceptable method.

If you think openbao can't work this way, then the package may not be
acceptable for Fedora/EPEL and COPR would be a better place for it.
