io: clarify the behavior of PipeWriter.CloseWithError(nil).
The previous wording implied that reads would return no error, rather
than EOF. It's convenient for users to know that Close() is equivalent
to CloseWithError(nil) because it can remove a branch from their error
handling code where they want to close the pipe in the appropriate way.
For example:

Unless otherwise noted, the Go source files are distributed under the BSD-style license found in the LICENSE file.
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
