Russ Cox f532f19d94 os: avoid nil returns from Readdirnames, Readdir, ReadDir
The refactoring of this code while adding ReadDir stopped
pre-allocating a 100-entry slice for the results.
That seemed like a good idea in general, since many
directories have nowhere near 100 entries, but it had the
side effect of returning a nil slice for an empty directory.

Some “golden” tests that are too sensitive about nil vs not
inside Google broke because Readdirnames(-1) was now
returning nil instead of []string{} on an empty directory.
It seems likely there are other such tests in the wild, and
it doesn't seem worth breaking them.

This commit restores the non-nil-ness of the old result,
without restoring the excessive preallocation.

Fixes #42367.
