Title:
  Feature Freeze Exception: Update golang-defaults to 1.17

Status in golang-defaults package in Ubuntu:
  Fix Released

Bug description:
  This change is necessary because we always update to the latest Go
  version before each release.

  Go's source does not provide a changelog, but the changes in 1.17 can
  be seen at https://golang.org/doc/go1.17

  To test that this change will work, I have created a PPA with golang-
  defaults pointing to Go 1.17, and tested a rebuild of all packages
  listed in reverse-depends -b src:golang-defaults. I also tested the
  same package builds with Go 1.16.7. The PPAs can be found at

  https://launchpad.net/~jawn-smith/+archive/ubuntu/golang-baseline-rebuilds
  https://launchpad.net/~jawn-smith/+archive/ubuntu/golang-defaults-117

  There are 19 packages (out of about 1,750) that have new build
  failures with Go 1.17. They are all in universe. The packages are:

  gitlab-workhorse
  golang-github-biogo-hts
  golang-github-crewjam-saml
  golang-github-gin-gonic-gin
  golang-github-google-wire
  golang-github-lucas-clemente-quick-go
  golang-github-marten-seemann-qtls-go
  golang-github-mattermost-xml-roundtrip-validator
  golang-github-prometheus-exporter-toolkit
  golang-github-sevlyar-go-daemon
  golang-github-zclconf-go-cty
  golang-golang-x-exp
  golang-golang-x-sys
  golang-gopkg-square-go-jose.v2
  notary
  packer
  panicparse
  syncthing
  textql

  I have already started creating patches to resolve these build
  failures.
