Russ Cox 798191bca9 unix, plan9: avoid writing to p when Pipe(p) fails
Generally speaking Go functions make no guarantees
about what has happened to result parameters on error,
and Pipe is no exception: callers should avoid looking at
p if Pipe returns an error.

However, we had a bug in which ForkExec was using the
content of p after a failed Pipe, and others may too.
As a robustness fix, make Pipe avoid writing to p on failure.

windows.Pipe already avoided writing to p on failure.

For golang/go#50057.
