[PATCH 11/13] perf tools: Introduce perf_target__strerror()

[Namhyung Kim <namhyung.kim@lge.com>]

The perf_target__strerror() sets @buf to a string that
describes the (perf_target-specific) error condition
that is passed via @errnum.

This is similar to strerror_r() and does same thing if
@errnum has a standard errno value.
