Subject: all: replace calls to errors.As with errors.AsType
X-Git-Tag: go1.26rc1~635
X-Git-Url: http://www.git.cypherpunks.su/?a=commitdiff_plain;h=6bcd97d9f4;p=gostls13.git

all: replace calls to errors.As with errors.AsType

This change replaces most occurrences (in code as well as in comments) of
errors.As with errors.AsType. It leaves the errors package and vendored
code untouched.
