Make error_t always int; make __errno_location return an __error_t.

error_t is a Hurdism whose purpose, as far as I know, is to make it so
you can get GDB to tell you the E-constant corresponding to the
current value of errno by typing 'p (error_t) errno'.  I tried to
generalize this to all platforms a few weeks ago and it was suggested
to me that this is maybe a job for a GDB pretty-printer, instead.
This patch clears the ground for that, by removing the Hurd-specific
definition of error_t.

error_t is also used to make the return values of a few GNU extension
functions (in argp.h and argz.h) a little more self-documenting, so it
can't completely go away, and it will be useful to be able to write
'p (error_t) err' where err is some ordinary int variable that happens
to have an errno value stashed in it.  So now stdlib/errno.h defines it
and it's always just a typedef for 'int'.

This patch also changes all definitions of __errno_location and the
underlying thread-local errno to have type __error_t instead of int.
__error_t is also just a typedef for int, but this is how we will cue
the GDB pretty-printer to print errno specially.  I believe that this
does not have any standards-compliance consequences, because it's just
a typedef for int.  This part of the change doesn't make sense in the
absence of the pretty-printer itself, but this split-up seemed more
useful to reviewers.

	* stdlib/errno.h (__error_t): New type (typedef as int).
	(__errno_location): Declare as returning __error_t.
	(error_t): Typedef as __error_t, if not already defined.

	* csu/errno-loc.c, csu/errno.c, include/errno.h
	* sysdeps/mach/hurd/dl-sysdep.c, sysdeps/mach/hurd/errno-loc.c:
	Change type of errno, __libc_errno, and rtld_errno, and
	return type of __errno_location to __error_t.

	* sysdeps/mach/hudr/errnos.awk: Do not emit enum __error_t_codes
	or a definition of error_t.
	* sysdeps/mach/hurd/bits/errno.h: Regenerate.
	* sysdeps/mach/hurd/errno.c: Delete file.
	* bits/errno.h: Update commentary.
