[Bug translator/10407] New: More accurate libdwfl/dw error reporting


In a couple of places systemtap unconditionally calls dwfl_errmsg(-1) or
dwarf_errmsg(-1), see for example dwarf_wrapper dwfl/dwarf_assert(). It would be
more accurate to distinguish the "failure" case (dwfl_errno() == 0) and the
"error" case (dwfl/dwarf_errno() != 0) when a call or assertion fails.
