Don't require go mod tidy

Warren Gifford requested to merge no-tidy into master

Created by: felixfbecker

According to the Go modules FAQ it is intentional and beneficial that old entries are kept around: https://github.com/golang/go/wiki/Modules#is-gosum-a-lock-file-why-does-gosum-include-information-for-module-versions-i-am-no-longer-using

Renovate does not run go mod tidy after updating, at least not until https://github.com/renovatebot/renovate/issues/2594 adds an option, so this currently blocks us from using Renovate.

We can add it back later if we want once Renovate has the option, or decide the Go team knows best 🤷‍♂️
