fix pipe usage for linux

This uses the correct read and write ends of the fds returned by pipe(2) on linux. It also moves away from creating FILE* streams with fdopen and reading the stream with buf_load (which performs a fstat, and breaks due to a zero length file size on linux) by instead reading from the fd itself. Reported by abieber@, with assistance from stsp@ ok stsp@

joshua stein

got_error_from_errno -> got_error_prefix_errno

also add got_error_prefix_errno2 and got_error_prefix_errno3 which should hopefully all be merged into a single function with variadic args (but can't alloc mem)


Stefan Sperling

check for errors from close(2)
