bpftool: Fix error message of strerror
strerror() expects a positive errno, however variable err will never be
positive when an error occurs. This causes bpftool to output too many
"unknown error", even a simple "file not exist" error can not get an
accurate message.
This patch fixed all "strerror(err)" patterns in bpftool.
Specially in btf.c#L823, hashmap__append() is an internal function of
libbpf and will not change errno, so there's a little difference.
Some libbpf_get_error() calls are kept for return values.
Changes since v1: https://lore.kernel.org/bpf/SY4P282MB1084B61CD8671DFA395AA8579D539@SY4P282MB1084.AUSP282.PROD.OUTLOOK.COM/
Check directly for NULL values instead of calling libbpf_get_error().
