errors: update As example to include else case

The current example illustrates using As when the error is able to be
interpreted as an os.PathError, but elides the "else" case. This CL adds the
small extra else case to make it clear that it's not safe to assume As will
return true.

This CL also squash the err instantiation and the err nil check into one line
for brevity.
