Description
golang/snappy has been archived and is no longer maintained. The current dependency ([github.com/golang/snappy](github.com/golang/snappy)) won't receive bug fixes or security patches.
[github.com/klauspost/compress/snappy](github.com/klauspost/compress/snappy) is a drop-in replacement that preserves the exact same API.
Jira issue: CRDB-65822
