Fix golangci-lint failures

- Fix config warnings, as backported into ci-mgmt: pulumi/ci-mgmt#1064
  - The configuration option run.skip-files is deprecated, please use issues.exclude-files.
  - The linter named "megacheck" is deprecated. It has been split into: gosimple, staticcheck, unused.
- Remove go:linkname which was added when we weren't maintaining patches and so had to use a compiler hack to set a value. This variable no longer exists so has no effect. Reported error:

    SA9009: ineffectual compiler directive due to extraneous space: "// go:linkname is not widely used outside the standard library, but allows us to" (staticcheck)

-// The AzureRM Terraform Provider has a setting named ARM_PROVIDER_STRICT, the bulk
-// of which was introduced into terraform-providers/terraform-provider-azurerm in commit
-// 447abecad. The setting prevents accidental adoption of existing resources, and is
-// something we want to opt into - not delegate to user control via the environment.
-//
-// When we maintained our own fork of terraform-providers-azurerm, we just enabled the
-// setting by modifying the feature flag value directly. Sadly it is unexported, and now
-// we do _not_ depend on a fork but on upstream directly, we need a way to set that.
-//
-// One option would be to use os.Setenv to set the environment variable for the child
-// processes - but this would put Azure specific bits into the plugin loader which is
-// not desirable. Instead, we use `go:linkname` to make the private package-level variable
-// which controls this behaviour accessible to us.
-//
-// go:linkname is not widely used outside the standard library, but allows us to
-// effectively alias a particular symbol via an accessible name. Per Ian Lance Taylor's
-// post on golang-dev [1], "it means: every time you are about to write out X in the object
-// file, write out Y instead."
-//
-// So, by aliasing a local variable `strictMode` to the particular symbol in question in
-// the azure provider (identified via `nm`), we can set the private value here by assigning
-// our own `strictMode` variable. Note that since we build with the vendor/ directory, we
-// must use the qualified vendor path to the symbol.
-//
-// Unfortunately, `go:linkname` does not give an error if the symbol being aliased does
-// not exist. Since we are aliasing into someone elses package, there is a real risk that
-// an upstream refactor will move or break this variable. To that end, as part of the lint
-// step in Makefile, we verify that the built binary actually has the symbol listed here
-// present. This does not protect against behavioural change, but we can likely write a
-// test for the undesirable behaviour to validate against that.
-//
-// Changes to this area of code are noted for upstream v1.30.0 (we are adopting this at
-// v1.29.0) but do not affect the way we need to handle this.
