syscall: define Syscall in terms of RawSyscall on linux

This is a re-do of CL 388477, fixing #52472.

It is unsafe to call syscall.RawSyscall from syscall.Syscall with
-coverpkg=all and -race. This is because:

1. Coverage adds a sync/atomic call in RawSyscall to increment the
   coverage counter.
2. Race mode instruments sync/atomic calls with TSAN runtime calls. TSAN
   eventually calls runtime.racecallbackfunc, which expects
   getg().m.p != 0, which is no longer true after entersyscall().

cmd/go actually avoids adding coverage instrumention to package runtime
in race mode entirely to avoid these kinds of problems. Rather than also
excluding all of syscall for this one function, work around by calling
RawSyscall6 instead, which avoids coverage instrumention both by being
written in assembly and in package runtime/*.
