gofix: error fix

To make the error fix more useful, expand typecheck to gather
more information about struct fields, typecheck range statements,
typecheck indirect and index of named types, and collect information
about assignment conversions.

Also, change addImport to rename top-level uses of a to-be-imported
identifier to avoid conflicts.  This duplicated some of the code in
the url fix, so that fix is now shorter.

+
+This fix rewrites code using os.Error to use error:
+
+	os.Error -> error
+	os.NewError -> errors.New
+	os.EOF -> io.EOF
+
+Seeing the old names above (os.Error and so on) triggers the following
+heuristic rewrites.  The heuristics can be forced using the -force=error flag.
+
+A top-level function, variable, or constant named error is renamed error_.
+
+Error implementations—those types used as os.Error or named
+XxxError—have their String methods renamed to Error.  Any existing
+Error field or method is renamed to Err.
+
+Error values—those with type os.Error or named e, err, error, err1,
+and so on—have method calls and field references rewritten just
+as the types do (String to Error, Error to Err).  Also, a type assertion
+of the form err.(*os.Waitmsg) becomes err.(*exec.ExitError).
+
+http://codereview.appspot.com/5305066
+`,
+}
+
+// At minimum, this fix applies the following rewrites:
+//
+//	os.Error -> error
+//	os.NewError -> errors.New
+//	os.EOF -> io.EOF
+//
+// However, if can apply any of those rewrites, it assumes that the
+// file predates the error type and tries to update the code to use
+// the new definition for error - an Error method, not a String method.
+// This more heuristic procedure may not be 100% accurate, so it is
+// only run when the file needs updating anyway.  The heuristic can
+// be forced to run using -force=error.
+//
+// First, we must identify the implementations of os.Error.
+// These include the type of any value returned as or assigned to an os.Error.
+// To that set we add any type whose name contains "Error" or "error".
+// The heuristic helps for implementations that are not used as os.Error
+// in the file in which they are defined.
+//
+// In any implementation of os.Error, we rename an existing struct field
+// or method named Error to Err and rename the String method to Error.
+//
+// Second, we must identify the values of type os.Error.
+// These include any value that obviously has type os.Error.
+// To that set we add any variable whose name is e or err or error
+// possibly followed by _ or a numeric or capitalized suffix.
+// The heuristic helps for variables that are initialized using calls
+// to functions in other packages.  The type checker does not have
+// information about those packages available, and in general cannot
+// (because the packages may themselves not compile).
+//
+// For any value of type os.Error, we replace a call to String with a call to Error.
+// We also replace type assertion err.(*os.Waitmsg) with err.(*exec.ExitError).
+
+// Variables matching this regexp are assumed to have type os.Error.
+var errVar = regexp.MustCompile(`^(e|err|error)_?([A-Z0-9].*)?$`)
