fix(deps): bump golang.org/x/crypto to v0.56.0 for CVE-2026-78662 and CVE-2026-56855

[keelerm84]

Bumps golang.org/x/crypto from v0.55.0 to v0.56.0 to clear two CVEs disclosed after #848.

Why

Docker Scout Scan is currently failing on v8 itself (tip 31bc9637, scanned 2026-09-03), and on any open PR whose image gets rescanned. PRs that still show green only did so because their scans ran on 2026-09-01, before these advisories landed.

golang.org/x/crypto 0.55.0
  ✗ UNSPECIFIED CVE-2026-78662   Affected range: <0.56.0   Fixed version: 0.56.0
  ✗ UNSPECIFIED CVE-2026-56855   Affected range: <0.56.0   Fixed version: 0.56.0

CRITICAL 0   HIGH 0   MEDIUM 0   LOW 0   UNSPECIFIED 2

Both are UNSPECIFIED severity, but .github/workflows runs the scan with only-fixed: true and exit-code: true, so any advisory with an available fix fails the job.

Note on the go directive

This also raises go from 1.25.10 to 1.26.0. That is not optional — golang.org/x/crypto v0.56.0 declares go 1.26.0 as its own minimum, so the bump is required to build. The repo builds and tests against 1.26.7 and 1.27.0 (.github/variables/go-versions.env), both of which satisfy it, so no supported configuration is dropped.

Verification

• go build ./... clean
• go vet ./... clean (no new findings)
• go test ./... — all 22 packages pass

Requirements

• I have added test coverage for new or changed functionality — n/a, dependency bump only
• I have followed the repository's pull request submission guidelines
• I have validated my changes against all supported platform versions

Note

Overview
Security and toolchain update so Docker Scout and CI (only-fixed: true, exit-code: true) pass again after advisories on golang.org/x/crypto < 0.56.0 (CVE-2026-78662, CVE-2026-56855).

go.mod raises golang.org/x/crypto from v0.55.0 to v0.56.0 and the go directive from 1.25.10 to 1.26.0 (required because v0.56.0 declares Go 1.26.0 as its minimum). go.sum is updated for the new crypto module version.

In relay/relay.go, a //nolint:staticcheck is added on the client-side httputil.ReverseProxy Director callback, with a note that migrating to Rewrite would alter X-Forwarded-* handling—no proxy behavior change, only silencing a new or stricter lint on the deprecated field.
