v2.0.0-beta.39 requires Go 1.18+?

It looks like Wails v2.0.0-beta.39 now requires Go 1.18+ as it is using the strings.Cut function introduced with Go 1.18...

$ wails dev

Was this an intentional change?

If so, @leaanthony are you happy for me to submit a PR that updates all references in the beta.39 and current versions of the website and v2 source and templates code to use Go 1.18? (not sure whether there's some system in place already to update all the go.mod templates to ensure their references are tidy)

If not intentional, I guess I've found a bug! 😄

It was not intentional 😔 I'll need to patch.
