Currently, for upgrading the Go command via the terminal, the only way is to create a script that queries https://go.dev/VERSION?m=text and verify it against the current installed Go version and download it.

I'd like to be able to do a go upgrade or something alike, in order to be able to upgrade my installed Go version, without needing a third-party script. There is most likely some gotcha per OS however.

This is what the go/toolchain directives do, though we won't modify the base go installation (that is too troublesome with the various OSes).
