I'd like to suggest adding support for amneziawg-go as an optional backend alongside WireGuard.

Why amneziawg-go?

No kernel dependency: Runs entirely in user space, simplifying deployment on systems without WireGuard kernel module.
Cross-platform: Easier to support on platforms like Windows/macOS where kernel-level WireGuard can be problematic.
Lightweight & fast: Designed for performance and minimal resource usage.
Built-in obfuscation: Helps bypass VPN blocks and DPI filtering.

This could broaden Pangolin’s compatibility and resilience in restrictive environments.

Thanks for considering!
