error: New error_fatal
Similar to error_abort, but doesn't report where the error was
created, and terminates the process with exit(1) rather than abort().

Backports commit a29a37b994ca3c5a1d39fa0e8934f7e0f2cf57ef from qemu

/*
* Error reporting system loosely patterned after Glib's GError.
*
* Create an error:
* error_setg(&err, "situation normal, all fouled up");
*
* Create an error and add additional explanation:
* error_setg(&err, "invalid quark");
* error_append_hint(&err, "Valid quarks are up, down, strange, "
* "charm, top, bottom.\n");
*
* Do *not* contract this to
* error_setg(&err, "invalid quark\n"
* "Valid quarks are up, down, strange, charm, top, bottom.");
*
*
* Report an error to the current monitor if we have one, else stderr:
* error_report_err(err);
* This frees the error object.
*
* Likewise, but with additional text prepended:
* error_reportf_err(err, "Could not frobnicate '%s': ", name);
*
* Report an error somewhere else:
* const char *msg = error_get_pretty(err);
* do with msg what needs to be done...
* error_free(err);
* Note that this loses hints added with error_append_hint().
*
* Handle an error without reporting it (just for completeness):
* error_free(err);
*
* Pass an existing error to the caller:
* error_propagate(errp, err);
* where Error **errp is a parameter, by convention the last one.
*
* Create a new error and pass it to the caller:
* error_setg(errp, "situation normal, all fouled up");
*
* Call a function and receive an error from it:
* Error *err = NULL;
* foo(arg, &err);
* if (err) {
* handle the error...
* }
*
* Call a function ignoring errors:
* foo(arg, NULL);
*
* Call a function aborting on errors:
* foo(arg, &error_abort);
*
* Call a function treating errors as fatal:
* foo(arg, &error_fatal);
*
* Receive an error and pass it on to the caller:
* Error *err = NULL;
* foo(arg, &err);
* if (err) {
* handle the error...
* error_propagate(errp, err);
* }
* where Error **errp is a parameter, by convention the last one.
*
* Do *not* "optimize" this to
* foo(arg, errp);
* if (*errp) { // WRONG!
* handle the error...
* }
* because errp may be NULL!
*
* But when all you do with the error is pass it on, please use
* foo(arg, errp);
* for readability.
*
* Receive and accumulate multiple errors (first one wins):
* Error *err = NULL, *local_err = NULL;
* foo(arg, &err);
* bar(arg, &local_err);
* error_propagate(&err, local_err);
* if (err) {
* handle the error...
* }
*
* Do *not* "optimize" this to
* foo(arg, &err);
* bar(arg, &err); // WRONG!
* if (err) {
* handle the error...
* }
* because this may pass a non-null err to bar().
