Before this change, if --fast-list was in use while doing a sync or
copy with --create-empty-src-dirs and --exclude excluded all the files
from the directory (but not the directory), then the directory would
not be created.
This is also visible with `rclone tree` which uses the same tree
building approach as `rclone sync --fast-list` where the directories
would go missing from the tree view.
This was caused by not adding the parents of excluded files to the
directory tree.

This is possible now that we no longer support go1.12 and brings
rclone into line with standard practices in the Go world.
This also removes errors.New and errors.Errorf from lib/errors and
prefers the stdlib errors package over lib/errors.
go1.15 introduced a stricter policy for what you can convert with
`string()` and now `go vet` warns if you try to do `string(int)`.

For few commands, RClone counts a error multiple times. This was fixed by
creating a new error type which keeps a flag to remember if the error has
already been counted or not. The CountError function now wraps the original
error eith the above new error type and returns it.
- Change rclone/fs interfaces to accept context.Context
- Update interface implementations to use context.Context
- Change top level usage to propagate context to lover level functions
Context propagation is needed for stopping transfers and passing other
request-scoped values.
It otherwise has the nearly the same interface as walk.Walk which it
will fall back to if it can't use ListR.
Using walk.ListR will speed up file system operations by default and
use much less memory and start immediately compared to if --fast-list
had been supplied.
The purpose of this is to make it easier to maintain and eventually to
allow the rclone backends to be re-used in other projects without
having to use the rclone configuration system.
The new code layout is documented in CONTRIBUTING.
