Default GOMAXPROCS to 1 (#2530)

Browse source 
Avoid running on all CPUs by limiting the Go runtime to one CPU by
default. Avoids having Go routines schedule on every CPU, driving up the
visible run queue length on high CPU count systems.

This also helps workaround a kernel deadlock issue with reading from
sysfs concurrently.

* https://github.com/prometheus/node_exporter/issues/2500

* [ENHANCEMENT]
* [BUGFIX]
NOTE: This changes the Go runtime "GOMAXPROCS" to 1. This is done to limit the
concurrency of the exporter to 1 CPU thread at a time in order to avoid a
race condition problem in the Linux kernel (#2500) and parallel IO issues
on nodes with high numbers of CPUs/CPU threads (#1880).
* [CHANGE] Default GOMAXPROCS to 1
## 1.4.0 / 2022-09-24
* [CHANGE] Merge metrics descriptions in textfile collector #2475
