net/http: make Server Handler's Request.Context be done on conn errors

This CL changes how the http1 Server reads from the client.

The goal of this change is to make the Request.Context given to Server
Handlers become done when the TCP connection dies (has seen any read
or write error). I didn't finish that for Go 1.7 when Context was
added to http package.

We can't notice the peer disconnect unless we're blocked in a Read
call, though, and previously we were only doing read calls as needed,
when reading the body or the next request. One exception to that was
the old pre-context CloseNotifier mechanism.

The implementation of CloseNotifier has always been tricky. The past
few releases have contained the complexity and moved the
reading-from-TCP-conn logic into the "connReader" type. This CL
extends connReader to make sure that it's always blocked in a Read
call, at least once the request body has been fully consumed.

In the process, this deletes all the old CloseNotify code and unifies
it with the context cancelation code. The two notification mechanisms
are nearly identical, except the CloseNotify path always notifies on
the arrival of pipelined HTTP/1 requests. We might want to change that
in a subsequent commit. I left a TODO for that. For now there's no
change in behavior except that the context now cancels as it was
supposed to.

As a bonus that fell out for free, a Handler can now use CloseNotifier
and Hijack together in the same request now.

Fixes #15224 (make http1 Server always in a Read, like http2)
Fixes #15927 (cancel context when underlying connection closes)
Updates #9763 (CloseNotifier + Hijack)

Binary Distribution Notes

If you have just untarred a binary Go distribution, you need to set the environment variable $GOROOT to the full path of the go directory (the one containing this file). You can omit the variable if you unpack it into /usr/local/go, or if you rebuild from sources by running all.bash (see doc/install-source.html). You should also add the Go binary directory $GOROOT/bin to your shell's path.

For example, if you extracted the tar file into $HOME/go, you might put the following in your .profile:

export GOROOT=$HOME/go
export PATH=$PATH:$GOROOT/bin

See https://golang.org/doc/install or doc/install.html for more details.
