What Changed

• Updated minimum Go version requirement from 1.23 to 1.25 throughout the setup-benchstat GitHub Action
• Modified version check logic to verify Go version >= 1.25 instead of >= 1.23
• Updated all documentation strings, descriptions, and example version numbers from "1.23"/"1.24.x" to "1.25"/"1.26.x"
• Changed version comparison condition from [ "$MINOR" -lt 23 ] to [ "$MINOR" -lt 25 ]

Why It Was Necessary

• Benchstat tool now requires a newer minimum Go version (1.25+) to function properly
• Documentation and validation logic needed to be synchronized with the updated dependency requirements
• Version compatibility checks must prevent installation attempts on incompatible Go versions to avoid build failures

Testing Performed

• Verified version parsing logic correctly identifies Go 1.25+ as compatible
• Tested that Go versions < 1.25 trigger the skip condition with appropriate warning messages
• Confirmed all error messages and user-facing documentation reflect the new version requirement

Impact / Risk

• Breaking Change: Workflows using Go versions 1.23 or 1.24 will now skip benchstat installation instead of proceeding
• Risk: Low - version check gracefully skips installation rather than failing, and outputs clearly indicate the skip reason
• Developer Impact: Teams must upgrade to Go 1.25+ to utilize benchstat functionality in their CI/CD pipelines
