Research direction

Start with the getting-started page at https://docs.libp2p.io/guides/getting-started/go/ and compare its stated minimum Go version with the build output in this issue. Update the requirement to match the documented module requirement, then verify that the page consistently reflects the supported version.

Description

Documentation here specifies the minimum go version is 1.19 but is in fact 1.20

$ go build -o libp2p-node
