What changed in v1.10.0

Mason checks more Python 3 executable candidates and no longer uses `vim.g.python3_host_prog`; Go version lookup handles package subpaths.

Install mason.nvim v1.10.0 with a Neovim plugin manager and call `require("mason").setup()`. Requires Neovim 0.7+. Package-specific external tools may be required.

Fixed and improved

Fetch available Go package versions when the package identifier contains a subpath.

Now worksInstall selected package versions headlessly and manage packages through Lua.
