unix: add Mkfifoat function on Linux
Add the Mkfifoat function on Linux, akin to the existing Mkfifo function
but taking an additional dirfd parameter. See
http://man7.org/linux/man-pages/man3/mkfifo.3.html
Originally requested in golang/go#14216
Also remove the named result parameter for Mkfifo, as they add no
additional use (suggested by Brad Fitzpatrick).
