The std::system_category error category should be used for
system-specific error codes, which means on Windows it should be used
for Windows error codes. Currently that category assumes that the error
numbers it deals with are errno numbers, which means that
ERROR_ACCESS_DENIED (which has value 0x5) gets treated as whichever
errno number happens to have that value (EIO on mingw32-w64).
This adds a mapping from known Windows error codes to generic errno
ones. This means we correctly treat ERROR_ACCESS_DENIED as corresponding
to EACCES.
Also make std::system_category().message(int) return the right message
for Windows errors, by using FormatMessage instead of strerror. The
output of FormatMessage includes ".\r\n" at the end, so we strip that
off to allow the message to be used in contexts where that would be
problematic.
