virHostCPUGetStatsLinux walks through every cpu in /proc/stat until it
finds cpu%cpuNum that matches with the requested cpu.
If none is found it logs the error but it should return -1, instead of 0.
Otherwise virsh nodecpustats --cpu <invalid cpu number> and API bindings
don't fail properly, printing a blank line instead of an error message.

This patch also includes an additional test for virhostcputest to avoid
this regression to happen again in the future.

I reviewed and tested this in the scope of [1]

Before:
root@f:~# virsh nodecpustats --cpu 47
root@f:~# echo $?
0

After
root@f:~# virsh nodecpustats --cpu 47
error: Unable to get node cpu stats
error: Invalid cpuNum in virHostCPUGetStatsLinux
root@f-dcap-after-cap:~# echo $?
1

You also see the added test passing
  PASS: virhostcputest
in the build log at [2]

Thanks Mauro, feel free to add my review and test tags:
