chore: upgrade deps and attempt to enable using go1.19 (#869)
* upgrade to our go.mod enabled of psiphon-tunnel-core such that
we're now using v2.0.24 of the tunnel-core;

* upgrade to the latest lucas-clemente/quic-go release;

* upgrade to the latest ooni/oohttp release (which is based on go1.19
but the diff seems good enough to continue using go1.18.x as well);

* upgrade to the latest ooni/oocrypto release (for which we can make the
same remarks regarding using go1.18.x);

* deal with changes in lucas-clemente/quic-go API as well as changes
in what a go1.19 *tls.Conn compatible type should look like.

Unfortunately, we cannot switch to go1.19 because psiphon forks quic-go
and their fork's still not building using such a version of go.

Part of ooni/probe#2211.

# OONI Probe Client Library and CLI
[![GoDoc](https://godoc.org/github.com/ooni/probe-cli?status.svg)](https://godoc.org/github.com/ooni/probe-cli) [![Coverage Status](https://coveralls.io/repos/github/ooni/probe-cli/badge.svg?branch=master)](https://coveralls.io/github/ooni/probe-cli?branch=master) [![Go Report Card](https://goreportcard.com/badge/github.com/ooni/probe-cli)](https://goreportcard.com/report/github.com/ooni/probe-cli)
The [Open Observatory of Network Interference](https://ooni.org) (OONI) is a non-profit free software project
that aims to empower decentralized efforts in documenting
Internet censorship around the world.
This repository contains core OONI tools written in Go:
- the CLI client ([cmd/ooniprobe](cmd/ooniprobe));
- the test helper server ([internal/cmd/oohelperd](internal/cmd/oohelperd));
- the mobile library ([pkg/oonimkall](pkg/oonimkall));
- the OONI Probe engine (inside [internal](internal)).
Every top-level directory in this repository contains an explanatory README file. You
may also notice that some internal packages live under [internal/engine](internal/engine)
while most others are top-level. This is part of [a long-standing refactoring](
https://github.com/ooni/probe/issues/2115) started when we merged
https://github.com/ooni/probe-engine into this repository. We'll slowly
ensure that all packages inside `engine` are moved out of it and inside `internal`.
## Semantic versioning policy
The mobile library is a public package for technical reasons. Go mobile tools require
a public package to build from. Yet, we don't consider API breakages happening in
such a package to be sufficient to bump our major version number. For us, the mobile
library is just a mean to implement OONI Probe Android and OONI Probe iOS. We'll
only bump the major version number if we change `./cmd/ooniprobe`'s CLI.

## User setup
Please, follow the instructions at [ooni.org/install/cli](https://ooni.org/install/cli)
to install `ooniprobe`. If we do not support your use case, please let us know. Once
`ooniprobe` is installed, try `ooniprobe help` to get interactive help.
## Reporting issues
Report issues at [github.com/ooni/probe](
https://github.com/ooni/probe/issues/new?labels=ooni/probe-cli&assignee=bassosimone).
Please, make sure you add the `ooni/probe-cli` label.
## Build instructions
Be sure you have:
1. the golang version mentioned inside the [GOVERSION](GOVERSION) file;
2. a C compiler (Mingw-w64 for Windows).
### ooniprobe
Ooniprobe is the official CLI client. Compile using:
```bash
go build -v -ldflags "-s -w" ./cmd/ooniprobe
```
This will generate a binary called `ooniprobe` in the current directory.
### miniooni
Miniooni is the experimental OONI client used for research. Compile using:
```bash
go build -v -ldflags "-s -w" ./internal/cmd/miniooni
```
This will generate a binary called `miniooni` in the current directory.
### oohelperd
Oohelperd is the test helper server. Compile using:
```bash
go build -v -ldflags "-s -w" ./internal/cmd/oohelperd
```
This will generate a binary called `oohelperd` in the current directory.
## Specifications
Every nettest (aka experiment) implemented in this repository has a companion
spec in [ooni/spec](https://github.com/ooni/spec).
## Contributing
Please, see [CONTRIBUTING.md](CONTRIBUTING.md).
## Updating dependencies
```bash
go get -t -u -v ./... && go mod tidy
```
## Releasing
Create an issue according to [the routine release template](
https://github.com/ooni/probe/blob/master/.github/ISSUE_TEMPLATE/routine-sprint-releases.md)
and perform any item inside the check-list.
We build releases using [Makefile](Makefile), which requires GNU make. The
`make help|less` provides detailed usage.
