The `AnyError` placeholder error can cause tests to succeed for errors
other than what was expected. That is, the use of `AnyError` can mask
bugs in a unit test. So replace it with the specific error, or error type,
the test expects to be raised.
This does not remove the anyError structure because it is used in
the TestCase.DoesNotCompile() method. To keep the size of this change
as small as possible I want to defer updating that use to a separate
change. However, remove the public AnyError var so future test writers
don't attempt to use it.
I was surprised to see so many legacy lambda syntax examples in the
documentation. This replaces all of them with the new syntax -- excluding
the handful of cases meant to explicitly verify the legacy form is still
valid. This also adds a link to the issue in the release notes which
documents the change in syntax.

There was a recent failure of the test that checks peach is
nondeterministic: https://github.com/elves/elvish/runs/2926941131
The failure can be reproduced reliably when setting GOMAXPROCS=1.
However, GitHub Action's Windows runner has two CPU cores, which means
GOMAXPROCS should be 2. Presumably, during that particular one, one of
the cores is occupied by another process, so Go had to run the
goroutines in order on one CPU core.
Go's time.Sleep yields the current goroutine and allow other scheduled
goroutines to run on the same thread. As a result, adding a random
jitter guarantees nondeterminism in execution order, even if only one
CPU core is available to execute threads.
Also run the nondeterminism check in an infinite loop.
* Use a "type" field to identify the type, instead of predicates in the exc:
module.
* Make the reason values behave more like structmaps, including a Repr that
mimics a map.
This fixes#208.
