build: bump go to v1.24.9

[ZZiigguurraatt]

As of lnd commit lightningnetwork/lnd@4fc8d8d, golang version 1.24.9 is required.

I'm not sure if #1159 should be closed in favor of this one or if we should merge #1159 first and them make a litd RC with lnd version v0.20.0-beta.rc2 with golang 1.24.8? Not sure of the differences between these golang versions so someone else with more expertise should weigh in on which PR to use, but both are available to look review and merge at this time.

Summary of Changes

Hello @ZZiigguurraatt, I'm Gemini Code Assist¹! I'm currently reviewing this pull request and will post my feedback shortly. In the meantime, here's a summary to help you and other reviewers quickly get up to speed!

This pull request focuses on a critical infrastructure update, specifically bumping the Go language version used across the project from 1.24.6 to 1.24.9. This upgrade is essential to align with the latest requirements of the lnd dependency, ensuring continued compatibility and access to the newest features and fixes. The changes are comprehensively applied to Docker build images, the main project Makefile, and all Go module definitions to guarantee a unified and stable development and deployment environment.

Highlights

• Go Version Update: The project's Go language version has been updated from 1.24.6 to 1.24.9 across all relevant configurations.
• LND Compatibility: This Go version bump is a prerequisite for maintaining compatibility with a recent lnd commit, which now explicitly requires Go 1.24.9.
• Build Environment Consistency: All Dockerfiles (Dockerfile, dev.Dockerfile, litrpc/Dockerfile, make/builder.Dockerfile, tools/Dockerfile) and the Makefile have been updated to reference the new Go 1.24.9 version, ensuring a consistent build environment.
• Module Definition Alignment: The go.mod files for the main project and its sub-modules (autopilotserverrpc, litrpc, perms, tools) have been updated to declare Go 1.24.9.
