This is built on top of #3607, adding new linters to simplify the codebase and/or fix it in some places.
I know this can make backports a bit annoying but the change should always be quite straightforward and I personally think linters are useful in two aspect: welcoming new contributors by enforcing automatic rules (thus reducing style friction) and finding actual issues.
Most of the linters I added can fix their own issues with
golangci-lint run --fix
