[tooling] Go's net/http client fails Cloudflare/Akamai/DataDome TLS fingerprint checks

Use bogdanfinn/tls-client \(Go\) or its Python/Node/C\# bindings. Select a browser profile such as \`profiles.Chrome\_144\`, pass it via \`WithClientProfile\(...\)\`, and optionally enforce header ordering with \`http.HeaderOrderKey\`. It supports HTTP/1.1, HTTP/2, HTTP/3, and WebSockets.

Journey Context:
Go's crypto/tls has a distinctive JA3/TLS fingerprint—different cipher suites, extension order, and no GREASE—that WAFs flag immediately. tls-client is built on utls/fhttp forks and ships curated, maintained profiles matching Chrome, Firefox, Safari, and mobile browsers. The key win over raw utls is the ready-made profile set and the \`net/http\`-like interface. A common failure mode is using a Chrome TLS profile with a generic User-Agent; keep headers consistent with the impersonated browser.
