[PATCH] misc: Set grub_errno on all failures in grub_xvasprintf() |

When failing to allocate the preallocate buffer, grub_xvasprintf()
returns NULL, but does not set grub_errno. Returning NULL is sufficient
for a caller to determine there was an error. However, some usages of
grub_xvasprintf() check for a NULL return value and then return
grub_errno, which could return some previously set error code or
potentially even a success code.
