If we want to add some info to errp (by error_prepend() or
error_append_hint()), we must use the ERRP_AUTO_PROPAGATE macro.
Otherwise, this info will not be added when errp == &error_fatal
(the program will exit prior to the error_append_hint() or
error_prepend() call).  Fix such cases.

If we want to check error after errp-function call, we need to
introduce local_err and then propagate it to errp. Instead, use
ERRP_AUTO_PROPAGATE macro, benefits are:
1. No need of explicit error_propagate call
2. No need of explicit local_err variable: use errp directly
3. ERRP_AUTO_PROPAGATE leaves errp as is if it's not NULL or
    &error_fatal, this means that we don't break error_abort
    (we'll abort on error_set, not on error_propagate)

Without the description, this patch has 800 lines of diff...
It killed me, I don't have the energy to review patch #7 of this
series after that, sorry.

Sorry for that! I really understand you, take a look at Markus's
"[PATCH v2 00/44] Less clumsy error checking", which I'm trying to review
currently..

Still, the patch exists in such form since
"[RFC v5 000/126] error: auto propagated local_err", where it was reviewed
by Anthony, and I suggested to split it, but it was not needed.
Unfortunately, I've dropped r-bs due to changes..

Consider splitting such mechanical patches next time. Here it
could have been hw/block, hw/pci-host, hw/xen.
