Now that we have a constant-time P-256 implementation, it's worth
paying more attention elsewhere.
The inversion of k in (EC)DSA was using Euclid's algorithm which isn't
constant-time. This change switches to Fermat's algorithm, which is
much better. However, it's important to note that math/big itself isn't
constant time and is using a 4-bit window for exponentiation with
variable memory access patterns.
(Since math/big depends quite deeply on its values being in minimal (as
opposed to fixed-length) represetation, perhaps crypto/elliptic should
grow a constant-time implementation of exponentiation in the scalar
field.)

1) Remove the Reset() member in crypto/aes and crypto/des (and
document the change).
2) Turn several empty error structures into vars. Any remaining error
structures are either non-empty, or will probably become so in the
future.
3) Implement SetWriteDeadline for TLS sockets. At the moment, the TLS
status cannot be reused after a Write error, which is probably fine
for most uses.
4) Make crypto/aes and crypto/des return a cipher.Block.

Consequently, remove many package Makefiles,
and shorten the few that remain.
gomake becomes 'go tool make'.
Turn off test phases of run.bash that do not work,
flagged with $BROKEN. Future CLs will restore these,
but this seemed like a big enough CL already.

Also, add an explicit error type when the right hand side is an unexported
function.

Although FIPS 186-3 says that we should truncate the hashes, at least
one other library (libgcrypt) doesn't. This means that it's impossible
to interoperate with code using gcrypt if we enforce the truncation
inside of crypto/dsa.
This change shouldn't actually affect anything because nearly
everybody pairs DSA with SHA1, which doesn't need to be truncated in
either case.

This is a core API change.
1) gofix misc src
2) Manual adjustments to the following files under src/pkg:
gob/decode.go
rpc/client.go
os/error.go
io/io.go
bufio/bufio.go
http/request.go
websocket/client.go
as well as:
src/cmd/gofix/testdata/*.go.in (reverted)
test/fixedbugs/bug243.go
3) Implemented gofix patch (oserrorstring.go) and test case (oserrorstring_test.go)
Compiles and runs all tests.
