Re-enable the golangci-lint job in CI (disabled Oct 2025), update to
Go 1.25 and golangci-lint-action v7. Fix errcheck, gosimple S1009,
staticcheck SA4031 and SA2001 errors across 54 files. Remaining ~39
lint errors will be addressed in follow-up commits.
Wrap *rand.Rand in a mutex-protected SafeRand type to make the global
RNG safe for concurrent use across goroutines. The previous bare
*rand.Rand caused data races detected by go test -race.
