build: update CI+release version to Go 1.25.2
We also update the go.mod files to pin to Go 1.24.8.

What changed, and why it matters
This commit is a routine build-maintenance change. It updates the Go compiler version used in CI, release pipelines, Docker images, and documentation from Go 1.24.6 to Go 1.25.2, and bumps the minimum Go version declared in go.mod files from 1.24.6 to 1.24.8. There are no code logic changes and no security fix or vulnerability patch is visible in the diff.
Recommended action
No security action required. Treat as normal dependency/toolchain maintenance. Verify that Go 1.25.2 and 1.24.8 release notes do not introduce regressions relevant to LND before deploying.
Security signals we found
No strong security signals were identified.
Evidence from the diff
The diff is a pure toolchain/version bump across 21 files: GitHub Actions workflows, Dockerfiles, Makefile, golangci-lint config, install docs, and module go.mod files. It changes version strings only (1.24.6 -> 1.25.2 for build/runtime images and CI, 1.24.6 -> 1.24.8 for go.mod directives). No application source code, dependency versions, or build logic were modified. The commit message does not describe a security issue.
