The environment is needed by package time, which
we want not to depend on os (so that os can use
time.Time), so push down into syscall.
Delete syscall.Sleep, now unnecessary.
The package os environment API is preserved;
it is only the implementation that is moving to syscall.
Delete os.Envs, which was undocumented,
uninitialized on Windows and Plan 9, and
not maintained by Setenv and Clearenv.
Code can call os.Environ instead.

The timespec passed to thrsleep() needs to be an absolute/realtime
value, so add the current nanotime to ns.

This looks like it is just moving some code from
time to runtime (and translating it to C), but the
runtime can do a better job managing the goroutines,
and it needs this functionality for its own maintenance
(for example, for the garbage collector to hand back
unused memory to the OS on a time delay).
Might as well have just one copy of the timer logic,
and runtime can't depend on time, so vice versa.
It also unifies Sleep, NewTicker, and NewTimer behind
one mechanism, so that there are no claims that one
is more efficient than another. (For example, today
people recommend using time.After instead of time.Sleep
to avoid blocking an OS thread.)

We only guarantee that the main goroutine runs on the
main OS thread for initialization. Programs that wish to
preserve that property for main.main can call runtime.LockOSThread.
This is what programs used to do before we unleashed
goroutines during init, so it is both a simple fix and keeps
existing programs working.

New DLL and Proc types to manage and call dll functions. These were
used to simplify syscall tests in runtime package. They were also
used to implement LazyDLL and LazyProc.
LazyProc, like Proc, now have Call function, that just a wrapper for
SyscallN. It is not as efficient as Syscall, but easier to use.
NewLazyDLL now supports non-ascii filenames.
LazyDLL and LazyProc now have Load and Find methods. These can be used
during runtime to discover if some dll functions are not present.
All dll functions now return errors that fit os.Error interface. They
also contain Windows error number.
Some of these changes are suggested by jp.
