Port most syscalls to VFS2.
pipe and pipe2 aren't ported, pending a slight rework of pipe FDs for VFS2. mount and umount2 aren't ported out of temporary laziness. access and faccessat need additional FSImpl methods to implement properly, but are stubbed to prevent googletest from CHECK-failing. Other syscalls require additional plumbing. Updates #1623 PiperOrigin-RevId: 297188448
