Global configured lang version

[SVilgelm]

your feature request related to a problem? Please describe.

Some of the linters have the configuration option to configure the lang's version, like gofumpt, staticcheck, unused, etc...

So it would be great to configure the version in one place and use it as default value or

Describe the solution you'd like.

probably the run section should be extended to have the go parameter to store the default lang version
then all the linters that have this parameter can use it as default

or the lang version can be read from go.mod directly

Describe alternatives you've considered.

but it looks like a dirty hack

The suggestion of using a special sentinel value in #2680 for triggering the inheritance could be made in a minor release, no need to wait for 2.0.0 for that. It isn't too pretty, but the advantage it would have over the anchor approach:

run:
  go: &run_go "1.17"
linters-settings:
  gofumpt:
    lang-version: *run_go

...would be that there would be no need to configure run.go at all now that we have autodetection, and linters could still use it. Dunno if not worth it, though, but if we're going to have inheritance in 2.0.0, perhaps support for the sentinel could be dropped at that time so the ugliness wouldn't be there forever.
