Rob Pike b87d025ac4 go.sys/plan9: use syscall.ErrorString for errors
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.

// Package plan9 contains an interface to the low-level operating system
// primitives. OS details vary depending on the underlying system, and
// by default, godoc will display the OS-specific documentation for the current
// system. If you want godoc to display documentation for another
// system, set $GOOS and $GOARCH to the desired system. For example, if
// you want to view documentation for freebsd/arm on linux/amd64, set $GOOS
// to freebsd and $GOARCH to arm.
// The primary use of this package is inside other packages that provide a more
// portable interface to the system, such as "os", "time" and "net". Use
// those packages rather than this one if you can.
// For details of the functions and data types in this package consult
// the manuals for the appropriate operating system.
// These calls return err == nil to indicate success; otherwise
// err represents an operating system error describing the failure and
// holds a value of type syscall.ErrorString.
