io/fs, path, path/filepath, testing/fstest: validate patterns in Match, Glob

According to #28614, proposal review agreed in December 2018 that
Match should return an error for failed matches where the unmatched
part of the pattern has a syntax error. (The failed match has to date
caused the scan of the pattern to stop early.)

This change implements that behavior: the match loop continues
scanning to the end of the pattern, even after a confirmed mismatch,
to check whether the pattern is even well-formed.

The change applies to both path.Match and filepath.Match.
Then filepath.Glob and fs.Glob make a single validity-checking
call to Match before beginning their usual processing.

Also update fstest.TestFS to check for correct validation in custom
Glob implementations.

Fixes #28614.
