- gofmt - Gofmt checks whether code was gofmt-ed. By default this tool runs
  with -s option to check for code simplification
- goimports - Goimports does everything that gofmt does. Additionally it checks
  unused imports
- golint - Golint differs from gofmt. Gofmt reformats Go source code, whereas
  golint prints out style mistakes
    - checks the uncommented exported functions & types

Update the code to fix the lint checks.

Add linter checks to GHA & Fix code to pass lints.
The linters added are:
- whitespace: Tool for detection of leading and trailing whitespace
- gosec: Inspects source code for security problems
- gci: Gci control golang package import order and make it always deterministic
- misspell: Finds commonly misspelled English words in comments
- gomnd: An analyzer to detect magic numbers

The file utils/utils.go is excluded from the checks of gomnd, as uses magic numbers through the code
