Use `errno` instead, which is icky, but given that all of the failure
modes are from POSIX I/O functions, it’s at least in keeping with them.
This is a major API break.

Another step towards dropping GLib as a dependency of
libsysprof-capture.
Unlike the previous commit which replaced GLib integer types with the
bitwise equivalent C standard types, `stdbool` is potentially a different
width from `gboolean`, so this is an ABI break.
It therefore involves some changes to callback functions in the tests
and tools, and in libsysprof.

In preparation for dropping the GLib dependency from libsysprof-capture,
move the autocleanup definitions up to libsysprof. Add a new header for
them.
This is slightly awkward in the tools, which depend on
libsysprof-capture but not libsysprof. Rather than make them depend on
libsysprof (which might be disabled at configure time), include the
`sysprof-capture-autocleanups.h` file between source directories.
`SYSPROF_COMPILATION` needs to be defined for this to work.

This is a source that will allow the inferior to call into Sysprof to
create a new mmap()'d ring buffer to share data. This allows significantly
less overhead in the child process as Sysprof itself will take care of
copying the data out of the inferior into the final capture file. There is
more copying of course, but less intrusive to the inferior itself.
This will look at what was in the reader before and create a new local
profiler from that. This still needs to add support for restoring info
from sources which need to be inflated.
This gets added as a metadata chunk to the capture file so that we can
use it later to recreate the session. The goal is to add something like
ctrl+r to run the capture again with identical settings to the previous
capture.
As we gain in usage, we need to be more careful about using a prefix
that will not collide with other symbols. So version 3 of our ABI will
change to using Sysprof/SYSPROF/sysprof as the various prefixes.
The soname/api version bump will happen later on this branch so that
things are easier to test up until then.
