[PATCH 01/15 v3] Introduce common/errors.h

I have rewritten the documentation on all these functions.  I don't
want to mention details of GDB's and/or gdbserver's implementation
in this file, so what I have done is described what callers should
expect the functions to do.  I hope this is clear enough.

I've done that now.  I made the non-v-prefixed functions part of
the common codebase; users of the common codebase are required to
implement the v-prefixed functions only.

Thanks,
Gary
