Explain the "no-error" io::Error case

Fundamentally, querying the OS for error codes is a process
that is deeply subject to the whims of chance and fortune.
We can account for OS, but not for every combination of platform APIs.
A compiled binary may not recognize new errors introduced years later.
We should clarify a few especially odd situations, and what they mean:
We can effectively promise nothing.

This allows removing mention of ErrorKind::Uncategorized.
That error variant is hidden quite deliberately, so we
should not explicitly mention it.
