g_strerror is offers the safety/correctness benefits of strerror_r, with
the API design convenience of strerror.
Use of virStrerror should be eliminated through the codebase in favour
of g_strerror.
commandhelper.c is a special case as its a tiny single threaded test
program, not linked to glib, so it just uses traditional strerror().
