Since Linux 3.11, O_TMPFILE flag can be used in open syscall to create
an unnamed file in a directory. The file occupies space in the
filesystem, and can be given a name using linkat syscall. If the file is
closed without being given a name, its contents are deleted.
See the manpage open(2) in Linux for details.
Exports O_TMPFILE for Linux in 386 and amd64 (other architectures
already had it). Exports Linkat syscall and AT_SYMLINK_FOLLOW (used for
giving a name to the file) for all Linux in all architectures.
Fixesgolang/go#7830.

- types_linux.go: Use the kernel-defined termios structure, *not* the
LIBC-defined one. The LIBC termios structure cannot be safely used
to do tty-related ioctls on all architectures (e.g. ppc64,
ppc64le). The kernel termios structure, and the associated
macros/constants, are defined in: "asm/termbits.h" which is included
by "linux/termios.h". The LIBC termios structure is defined in
"bits/termios.h" which is included by "termios.h". These structures
are *not* the same.
For systems that have both "struct termios" and "struct termios2"
use the latter to define the Termios type. This is ok, since the
"struct termios2" memory layout is compatible with "struct termios"
(with a couple of fields added at the end). This way, type Termios
can be used with both: the "old-style" TCSETS[FW], TCGETS ioctls,
*and* with the new TCSETS[FW]2, TCGETS2 ioctls. The new ioctls allow
configuring arbitrary baudrates.
The new Termios definitions (kernel-compatible) have the same fields
as the old ones (LIBC-derived) so there should be no user-code
compatibility issues.

This CL adds the Utimensat syscall and AT_SYMLINK_NOFOLLOW constant.
This is required for setting the access/modification times on symlinks.
In addition, it updates the UtimesNano function to pass 0 as the flags
parameter, to avoid potentially passing junk.

Import syscall so that Kill can refer to syscall.Signal. Drop
termios constants from types_linux.go--all other systems get
them from mkerrors.sh.

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.
