Nomad strips multierror for stdlib, nvidia plugin jumps to Go 1.27

HashiCorp's Nomad stack is shedding legacy dependencies and patching known vulnerabilities, with the nvidia device plugin forced up to Go 1.27.

Nomad's API package dropped its multierror dependency in favor of stdlib errors, a clean modernization move that simplifies the codebase [1]. The same effort continues in the client package, which is being modernized across its sub-pkgs [2]. More urgent: the nvidia device plugin jumped to Go 1.27.0 because "the application was using an old version which had known vulnerbilities," a change that also dragged golangci-lint along [3]. That plugin also picks up a gRPC bump to 1.82.1, which includes a server-side fix for HTTP/2 frame flooding [4]. Meanwhile, Terraform provider for AWS quietly fixed a failing performance CI script and added a shellcheck target to keep shell scripts honest [5][6]. Setup-copywrite gets routine dependency bumps including esbuild to 0.28.2, which fixes a tree shaking bug with TypeScript import aliases [7]. The multierror and Go version moves are the ones with real teeth; the rest is housekeeping.
