Implement %m in src/port/snprintf.c, and teach elog.c to rely on that.

I started out with the idea that we needed to detect use of %m format specs
in contexts other than elog/ereport calls, because we couldn't rely on that
working in *printf calls.  But a better answer is to fix things so that it
does work.  Now that we're using snprintf.c all the time, we can implement
%m in that and we've fixed the problem.

This requires also adjusting our various printf-wrapping functions so that
they ensure "errno" is preserved when they call snprintf.c.

Remove elog.c's handmade implementation of %m, and let it rely on
snprintf to support the feature.  That should provide some performance
gain, though I've not attempted to measure it.

There are a lot of places where we could now simplify 'printf("%s",
strerror(errno))' into 'printf("%m")', but I'm not in any big hurry
to make that happen.
