Widespread dependencies update

[eldang]

I needed to update some dependencies to get this project through a client's automated security scans, so decided to do a broad round of updates while I was at it. I figure this might be useful to merge back to the original repository, though it may also be worth testing it more than I have done.

Testing I have done:

• Building and running locally on my mac
• Building the Alpine Docker image and running that on my mac
• Having the client's CI build a slightly customised version of the Alpine Docker image in their infrastructure (Azure DevOps), which is now backing https://eldang.github.io/evs2scale/

This is the specific dependency that was originally triggering static code analysis alerts because of https://nvd.nist.gov/vuln/detail/CVE-2024-45337 . I had to add the explicit replace because the static code analysis tool would alert on any mention of an affected version in go.sum. It may make sense to remove it for general purposes; I think the analysis tool raising alerts on those is bad behaviour.

Remove the replace you mean?

Yeah. I don't know if it does any harm, but I just figure you probably don't want a random assortment of these starting to accumulate because of one very specific use case that I already have a fork for.
