Remove golint as linter (#17609)

- Partialy resolvess #17596
- In the newer versions of `golangci-lint`, golint is  deprecated and
replaced by the `revive` linter. Thus removing the `golint` linter is a
good idea, as we're already using the `revive` linter which covers all
the current `golint` cases.
