Remove AccessError to better match CPython - #9463
CPython does not raise an exception for invalid modes passed to os.access. Instead, it simply returns false for any errors returned by faccessat or the Windows equivalent.
os.access now returns False when an access check fails instead of raising an exception. On platforms with explicit access-mode validation, invalid modes also return False.
On Unix-like platforms, unknown access-mode bits are no longer rejected before the check; the result reflects whether the system access check succeeds.

Walkthrough
Host check_access functions now return bool instead of Result<bool, AccessError>. The Python os.access wrapper returns the host result directly. The changes also adjust target-specific permission helpers, remove the Unix AccessError conversion, and add a test for access mode 255.
The POSIX module re-exports access constants. Permissions and get_permissions are limited to ESP-IDF, Horizon, and Vita. Both host access-check implementations return booleans. The Unix-like implementation retains unrecognized mode bits and returns the access system call’s success result.
Python access wrapper and test crates/vm/src/stdlib/posix.rs, crates/vm/src/exceptions.rs, extra_tests/snippets/stdlib_os.py
os.access returns the host boolean through its existing PyResult<bool> return type. The Unix AccessError conversion is removed. A test asserts that mode 255 returns false for a temporary file.
RustPython/RustPython#9410: Adds the Unix check_access function and changes its caller; this PR changes the same function’s return contract and handling of invalid mode bits.

The access checks now return false on host errors, and the target-specific compilation issue is fixed. No actionable merge-blocking risk remains after normal checks.
