> CASSANDRA-19915 introduced the cqlprotodoc tool to auto-generate our native
> protocol doc pages. We use this tool in-tree in
> {{doc/scripts/process-native-protocol-specs-in-docker.sh}}
> The cqlprotodoc tool uses golang, and the original patch (and improvement in
> CASSANDRA-20422) auto-downloads and installs golang.
> This is a security risk and: even with due checksumming of downloaded
> artefacts in place; is to removed. The installation of tools/languages in
> the build process also introduces pain-points for downstream users in
> corporate environments.
> ML discussion:
> https://lists.apache.org/thread/24gcf4nyh8mjvjllnnx8tj85252gn3ro
> The agreement is to remove the auto-download/install, and to hard fail when
> go is not available, also providing information in the failure message on how
> the gen-doc ant command can be skipped.
