PATCH 1/1 package/go: security bump to version 1.16.4

Fixes the following security issues:

- CVE-2021-31525: ReadRequest and ReadResponse in net/http can hit an unrecoverable panic when reading a very large header (over 7MB on 64-bit architectures, or over 4MB on 32-bit ones). Transport and Client are vulnerable and the program can be made to crash by a malicious server. Server is not vulnerable by default, but can be if the default max header of 1MB is overridden by setting Server.MaxHeaderBytes to a higher value, in which case the program can be made to crash by a malicious client.

For 2021.02.x I have instead bumped to 1.5.12, which includes the same security fix.
