Given that go is statically compiled, I'm not sure why GoVersion is linked at build time, vs using runtime directly.

Also, add it some additional runtime variables. While seemingly superfluous, these can add clarity in the rosetta2 environment.

@groob @zwass You both might know the history here. Is this a bad idea?

I am not aware of any problem with the new approach. Perhaps the runtime.Version() function didn't exist when we first made this? Seems unlikely, but possible.

Not sure either. This change LGTM.

Should probable be a TODO to delete this global or mark it as deprecated? I understand not wanting to break any scripts still setting it.

I swapped it runtime.Version(), which seems a little superfluous with calling runtime. but fits nicely with the PrintFull function. 🤷 Not sure this really gets any use

My point is that the goVersion variable in the var block is now unused.
