The tests in doc/progs appear to have been originally written
for use with the old test driver. At some later point,
they acquired their own test driver.
Both ran tests in serial.
This CL rewrites the current test driver in Go,
runs tests concurrently, and cleans up
historical artifacts from the old drivers.
The primary motivation is to speed up all.bash.
On my laptop, using tip, this CL reduces doc/progs test
wall time from 26s to 7s. The savings will remain
even when the compiler gets faster. Using Go 1.4,
this CL reduces test wall time from 15s to 4s.

The set of errors forwarded by the os package varied with system and
was therefore non-portable.
Three helpers added for portable error checking: IsExist, IsNotExist, and IsPermission.
One or two more may need to come, but let's keep the set very small to discourage
thinking about errors that way.

This CL is in part a proposal for how to write these sections:
- Brief discussion of change
- No attempt to analyze the thinking about it
- Old code
- New code, runnable if possible
- How to update old programs
