Since go1.8 os.RemoveAll and os.MkdirAll both support long
path names i.e UNC path on windows. The code we are carrying
was directly borrowed from `pkg/os` package and doesn't need
to be in our repo anymore. As a side affect this also
addresses our codecoverage issue.
Refer #4658
This is a consolidation effort, avoiding usage
of naked strings in codebase. Whenever possible
use constants which can be repurposed elsewhere.
This also fixes `goconst ./...` reported issues.
