Dmitri Shuralyov 5804fef4c0 x/tools/go/vcs: fix FromDir returning bad root on Windows
Import path is a '/'-separated path. FromDir documentation says
on return, root is the import path corresponding to the root of
the repository. On Windows and other OSes where os.PathSeparator
is not '/', that wasn't true since root would contain characters
other than '/', and therefore it wasn't a valid import path
corresponding to the root of the repository. Fix that by using
filepath.ToSlash.

Add test coverage for root value returned from FromDir, it was
previously not tested.

Additionally, remove a dubious statement from the documentation
"(thus root is a prefix of importPath)". There is no variable
importPath that is being referred to. It's also redundant and
confusing. Without it, the description of root value matches
the documentation of RepoRoot.Root struct field:

	// Root is the import path corresponding to the root of the
	// repository.
	Root string

Fixes golang/go#7723.

README

This subrepository holds the source for various packages and tools that support
the Go programming language.

Some of the tools, godoc and vet for example, are included in binary Go distributions.
Others, including the Go oracle and the test coverage tool, can be fetched with "go get".

Packages include a type-checker for Go and an implementation of the
Static Single Assignment form (SSA) representation for Go programs.
