CL 432835 changed two grep commands in unix/mkerrors.sh in such a way
that is incompatible with AIX's grep, which, unlike GNU grep, does not
support extended regular expressions without the -E flag. The intent of
this PR is to restore the egrep behavior by invoking grep as grep -E.
My assumption is that GNU grep is not meant to be a requirement to run
mkerrors.sh, and given that, grep -E looks like the most cross-platform
approach.

Example of current (incorrect) behavior on AIX:

bash-5.2$ printf 'SIGHUP\nSIGMAX64\nSIGTERM' | grep -v 'SIGSTKSIZE|SIGSTKSZ|SIGRT|SIGMAX64'
SIGHUP
SIGMAX64
SIGTERM

Behavior before CL 432835:

bash-5.2$ printf 'SIGHUP\nSIGMAX64\nSIGTERM' | egrep -v '(SIGSTKSIZE|SIGSTKSZ|SIGRT|SIGMAX64)'
SIGHUP
SIGTERM

Behavior of proposed change:

bash-5.2$ printf 'SIGHUP\nSIGMAX64\nSIGTERM' | grep -E -v '(SIGSTKSIZE|SIGSTKSZ|SIGRT|SIGMAX64)'
SIGHUP
SIGTERM

OpenBSD's grep behaves the same as AIX for the above commands, which is
why I cast this as GNU vs. non-GNU. I haven't tested any other
implementations.

Fixes golang/go#69365

Congratulations on opening your first change. Thank you for your contribution!

Next steps:
A maintainer will review your change and provide feedback. See
https://go.dev/doc/contribute#review for more info and tips to get your
patch through code review.

Most changes in the Go project go through a few rounds of revision. This can be
surprising to people new to the project. The careful, iterative review process
is our way of helping mentor contributors and ensuring that their contributions
have a lasting impact.

During May-July and Nov-Jan the Go project is in a code freeze, during which
little code gets reviewed or merged. If a reviewer responds with a comment like
R=go1.11 or adds a tag like "wait-release", it means that this CL will be
reviewed as part of the next development cycle. See https://go.dev/s/release
for more details.
