Update to Go 1.17

Go 1.17 now lazy-loads dependencies when `go.mod` is version `go17`. This does not work for us for new projects started with `hugo mod init`.

Before this commit, starting a project with Go 1.17 with `hugo mod init` and then start adding dependencies with transitive dependenies to `config.toml` would treat the transitive dependencies as new, and you would potentially get a too recent version of those.

Note that this does not effect existing projects, where all dependencies are already recorded in `go.mod`.

Fixes #8930
