Ignore go.work.sum

[katexochen]

Reasons for making this change:

As the go.work file is excluded, the go.work.sum file, which is generated based on the go.work file, should be excluded, too.
Also mentioned in fbc053f#commitcomment-73352144

Links to documentation supporting these rule changes:
Currently there isn't much documentation regarding go.work.sum (see golang/go#51941), the only thing I can refer to is the proposal, which suggests to not check in the go.work file.

LGTM

These files shouldn't be commited since they are specific to a local dev environment.

Why not **go.sum?
The sum file is used to check locally, I think.

Typically your module's go.sum file should be committed along with your go.mod file.

@avelino, @Nirusu will this get merged?

I'm in favor of this change - if go.work is ignored, then go.work.sum should also be ignored. Note that there's not actually a recommendation or even consensus on whether these files should be ignored. My read on the situation is that for cases like a monorepo, you probably do want to commit these files but in many other situations, you do not. See the discussion at golang/go#53502.

@bdougie, could you please take a look at this PR since you already merged #3884? The file mentioned here is a checksum file that is autogenerated, and present iif go.work file is present in the local repository. Since go.work is ignored, we should ignore go.work.sum files as well.

Hey there, I noticed that the PR is already approved. is there an estimated timeframe for when it might be merged? Just curious and looking forward to it

I think those gray check marks indicate that the approvals are by developers who are not CODEOWNERS. I don't even see a merge button!
