Previously, a timeout (in int64 nanoseconds) applied to a granularity
even smaller than one operation: a 100 byte read with a 1 second timeout
could take 100 seconds, if the bytes all arrived on the network 1 second
apart. This was confusing.
Rather than making the timeout granularity be per-Read/Write,
this CL makes callers set an absolute deadline (in time.Time)
after which operations will fail. This makes it possible to
set deadlines at higher levels, without knowing exactly how
many read/write operations will happen in e.g. reading an HTTP
request.

For now a pair of socket options SOL_SOCKET and SO_BINDTODEVICE
is supported on Linux only. I'd like to demote BindToDevice API
to syscall level because it's Linux dependent one.
In the near future, probably we may have a bit more portable
API that using IPROTO_IP/IPV6 level socket options to specify,
identify an inbound, outbound IP interface on incoming, outgoing
UDP and raw IP packets.

The go/build package already recognizes
system-specific file names like
mycode_darwin.go
mycode_darwin_386.go
mycode_386.s
However, it is also common to write files that
apply to multiple architectures, so a recent CL added
to go/build the ability to process comments
listing a set of conditions for building. For example:
// +build darwin freebsd openbsd/386
says that this file should be compiled only on
OS X, FreeBSD, or 32-bit x86 OpenBSD systems.
These conventions are not yet documented
(hence this long CL description).
This CL adds build comments to the multi-system
files in the core library, a step toward making it
possible to use go/build to build them.
With this change go/build can handle crypto/rand,
exec, net, path/filepath, os/user, and time.
os and syscall need additional adjustments.

All tests enabled by default passes except those in timeout_test.go.
For TestLookupPort, add an entry for "bootps" in /lib/ndb/common
(Plan 9 calls it "bootp"). I've sent out a patch to fix this.
