proposal: all: add GOOS=cosmo port for Cosmopolitan Libc

Go is slowly becoming the de-facto lingua franca of DevOps - to the point of replacing shell scripting (see [Cloudflare Blog/Using Go as a scripting language in Linux](https://blog.cloudflare.com/using-go-as-a-scripting-language-in-linux/)). The next great iteration would be a compile once run anywhere type of such scripting (as possible as it can be with external packaging involved). There's already a PoC libc and executable format that can run anywhere (see [Cosmopolitan libc](https://justine.lol/cosmopolitan/) and [APE](https://justine.lol/ape.html)). The author of Cosmpolitan and APE has indicated a [willingness to collaborate and support Go running on Cosmopolitan and producing APE binaries](https://github.com/jart/cosmopolitan/issues/140).
