Compatibility with future Go versions

[Bo98]

Just a heads up that Go 1.17 (and the just-released 1.16 without first changing GO111MODULE) won't support builds that aren't in module-aware mode.

The master build should work but the last stable tag (v0.5.4) does not. I'm not sure what the status of this project is. Is there any plans for a new release?

Thank you for the heads-up.
I'll look into that. We've been using a 0.6 version internally for some time now.
I'd need to check if there are any open issues left, otherwise I guess that one could be made a release.

Took a while, but I tagged the current master as release 0.6.0 now.
This should fix the build issue (except for an issue with the ARMv6 build caused by an external dependency)

@arnecls 👋 can you tag another release for the downstream package management like homebrew? Thanks!
