This change removes support for Go 1.8 and older, as they're no longer
supported per release policy¹.
This brings back a simpler file layout that was here prior to CL 36730,
but keeps using type aliases for the exported names from the standard
library's image/draw package.
Don't keep the comment motivating type alias use, since that feature is
no longer new, and commonly understood by now.

This relies on type aliases, a language feature new in Go 1.9.
The package documentation, in draw.go, explicitly gives the intent of
this package:
This package is a superset of and a drop-in replacement for the
image/draw package in the standard library.
Drop-in replacement means that I can replace all of my "image/draw"
imports with "golang.org/x/image/draw", to access additional features in
this package, and no further changes are required. That's mostly true,
but not completely true unless we use type aliases.
Without type aliases, users might need to import both "image/draw" and
"golang.org/x/image/draw" in order to convert from two conceptually
equivalent but different (from the compiler's point of view) types, such
as from one draw.Op type to another draw.Op type, to satisfy some other
interface or function signature.
