tomb: update API

- Rename Fatal and Fatalf to Kill and Killf.

- The Stop error value is gone. Use nil now.

- Err will now return ErrStillRunning if the goroutine isn't dead
  yet, which means a nil return reflects an actual nil Kill call.

- Make zero-value of Tomb good to use, and as a consequence, make
  Dead and Dying into methods rather than fields.
