the stdio FILE read backend's return type is size_t, not ssize_t, and
all of the special (non-fd-backed) FILE types already return the
number of bytes read (zero) on error or eof. only __stdio_read leaked
a syscall error return into its return value.

fread had a workaround for this behavior going all the way back to the
original check-in. remove the workaround since it's no longer needed.
