Handle auto-detected version strings with trailing information

[TyBrown]

Fixes #37

I fixed the golangci-lint stuff by upgrading the version, but there's a lot more failures than I can reasonably fix at this time, so I checked and ensured that I didn't introduce any new golangci-lint errors in the code I'm contributing in this PR compared to what is currently on master.

It also looks like the checks that GitHub Actions are running are against the base of the PR, so despite my fixing some of these issues, the checks are still failing in GitHub Actions. I believe this is due to the use of:

on: [pull_request_target]

instead of:

on: [pull_request]

@alexppg I hate to be a pest, but is there any chance of this getting reviewed/merged?
