Code Review

This pull request updates several Go dependencies, including upgrading the Go version to 1.25.0. While most dependency updates appear to be routine, I've identified a critical issue with the version specified for cloud.google.com/go/storage. The pseudo-version used contains a timestamp from the future, which is invalid and likely an error. This could lead to problems with dependency resolution and builds. Please see my specific comment for details and a suggested fix.

We are currently in the process of upgrading to Golang 1.26. Would it be possible to release a Golang 1.24 compatible library?

[krishnamd-jkp]

We have upgraded the Go SDK recently to 1.25.0 so I'm afraid the only option is to cherry pick these changes onto a different release branch without the go upgrade commit which is not the cleanest way.
