This is a copy of http://golang.org/cl/9870 in the syscall package.
This is in preparation for arm64 support, as the arm64 Linux kernel
does not have an inotify_init system call, only inotify_init1.
Update golang/go#10150.

This brings over three CLs from the main syscall package:
http://golang.org/cl/5833http://golang.org/cl/5835http://golang.org/cl/5837
Pipe, Pipe2, and Dup2 are moved from syscall_linux.go to the GOARCH
specific variants. On 386 and amd64, Linux kernel version 2.6.23 (the
documented minimum Linux kernel version the Go distribution supports)
does not support the pipe2 system call, so Pipe continues to call
pipe. On ARM, Pipe now calls pipe2.
Several system calls are reimplemented in terms of the *at syscalls,
passing AT_FDCWD to indicate that pathnames are to be interpreted
relative to the current directory. The *at syscalls were added in
Linux kernel version 2.6.16.
This is in preparation for arm64 support, as the arm64 Linux kernel
does not provide the traditional syscall variants.

Because ARM ABI requires 64-bit argument to be passed in even
register pairs, to avoid wasting one register between fd and
advise in the usual fadvise64 syscall signature, linux/arm
has its own variation that reorders the argument so that the
arguments fit in six registers.
While we're at it, also fix build for linux/386.
Fixesgolang/go#10294.

If we use a local type, it won't compare properly with errors from
the rest of the standard library. Errors are the one type from syscall
that propagates through the system, so it's important to have only
one type for them.
Ditto for syscall.Signal.

Semi-automatic migration from package syscall to package {plan9,windows,unix}.
No builds attempted yet, but this gets a lot of noise behind us so subsequent
CLs will be more concise and easier to follow.
Subsequent CLs will have semantic content.

This CL copies to each package of go.sys the files from syscall it will need.
Different directories have different files, but these:
mkall.sh
str.go
syscall.go
mksyscall.pl
race.go
race0.go
syscall_test.go
are copied to all three.
No changes yet, these are just copies. They are not ready to use yet:
package names are wrong, for starters. But this clean copy will make
it easier to follow the changes as the packages are enabled.
