Generate error_constants.h from <errno.h>

    Instead of having several very similar target-specific headers with
    slightly different sets of enumerators, generate the error_constants.h
    file as part of the build. This ensures that all enumerators are always
    defined, with the value from the corresponding errno macro if present,
    or a libstdc++-specific alternative value.

    The libstdc++-specific values will be values greater than the positive
    integer _GLIBCXX_ERRC_ORIGIN, which defaults to 9999 but can be set in
    os_defines.h if a more suitable value exists for the OS (e.g. ELAST
    could be used for BSD targets).


The advantage of doing this is that we get a header that can be used
freestanding, but with values that match the hosted errno.h (if one exists on
the target).
