Bug3486 tried to walk the entire file tree, but other tests might
be creating and removing files in that tree. In particular, package os
creates and removes files in the os directory, and issue 5863
reports failures due to seeing those files appear and then disappear.
Change the test to walk just the test tree, which should not be
changing.
Fixes#5863.

Update #5000
Should reduce the flakiness a little. Malloc counting is important
to general testing but not to the build dashboard, which uses -short.

On Windows, directory names in PATH can be fully or partially quoted
in double quotes ('"'), but the path names as used by most APIs must
be unquoted. In addition, quoted names can contain the semicolon
(';') character, which is otherwise used as ListSeparator.
This CL changes SplitList in path/filepath and LookPath in os/exec
to only treat unquoted semicolons as separators, and to unquote the
separated elements.
(In addition, fix harmless test bug I introduced for LookPath on Unix.)

If a test can be placed in the same package ("internal"), it is placed
there. This facilitates testing of package-private details. Because of
dependency cycles some packages cannot be tested by internal tests.

This CL also replaces similar loops in other stdlib
package tests with calls to AllocsPerRun.

Define the properties of the arguments better. In particular,
explain that the path is (sort of) relative to the argument to
Walk.
Fixes#4119.

Since NUL usually terminates strings in underlying syscalls, allowing
it when converting string arguments is a security risk, especially
when dealing with filenames. For example, a program might reason that
filename like "/root/..\x00/" is a subdirectory or "/root/" and allow
access to it, while underlying syscall will treat "\x00" as an end of
that string and the actual filename will be "/root/..", which might
be unexpected. Returning EINVAL when string arguments have NUL in
them makes sure this attack vector is unusable.

Currently walk() doesn't check for err == SkipDir when iterating
a directory list, but such promise is made in the docs for WalkFunc.

As discussed on golang-dev, windows will use
"\" as path separator. No escaping allowed.

The strikes against it are:
1. It does not take path boundaries into account.
2. It assumes that Windows==case-insensitive file system
and non-Windows==case-sensitive file system, neither of
which is always true.
3. Comparing ToLower against ToLower is not a correct
implementation of a case-insensitive string comparison.
4. If it returns true on Windows you still don't know how long
the matching prefix is in bytes, so you can't compute what
the suffix is.

This reduces the overhead necessary to work with OS-specific
file details, hides the implementation of FileStat, and
preserves the implementation-specific nature of Sys.
Expressions such as:
stat.(*os.FileInfo).Sys.(*syscall.Stat_t).Uid
fi1.(*os.FileStat).SameFile(fi2.(*os.FileStat))
Are now spelled as::
stat.Sys().(*syscall.Stat_t).Uid
os.SameFile(fi1, fi2)

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.
