Summary
Simplify go:build constraint
linux || darwintounix. This can potentially support also constraintfreebsdin the future.The constraint
unixis available since Go 1.19: https://tip.golang.org/doc/go1.19#go-unixFile name suffixes (filename_unix.go, filename_windows.go, filename_linux.go ...) are also available and being used in this project, but I'm not sure whether one should do both (go:build and file name suffixes) OR not. But it seems like
go:buildtakes precedence.Related

Context
I'm working on getting support for
FreeBSD. This patch helps to simplify the code base so that the diff for FreeBSD support gets smaller.
