Stop excessive wrapping of errors

Most of the builtin golang functions like os.Stat and
os.Open report errors including the file system object
path. We should not wrap these errors and put the file path
in a second time, causing stuttering of errors when they
get presented to the user.

This patch tries to cleanup a bunch of these errors.
