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.
Will apply the corresponding change to the other packages once
this is approved.
Also delete some deprecated code. This is a new package; no need
to carry the past.

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.
