    tools/9pfsd: Fix build error caused by strerror_r
    
    Below error can be seen when doing Yocto build of the toolstack:
    
    | io.c: In function 'p9_error':
    | io.c:684:5: error: ignoring return value of 'strerror_r' declared
      with attribute 'warn_unused_result' [-Werror=unused-result]
    |   684 |     strerror_r(err, ring->buffer, ring->ring_size);
    |       |     ^~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
    | cc1: all warnings being treated as errors
    
    Using strerror_r() without special casing different build environments
    is impossible due to the different return types (int vs char *)
    depending on the environment. As p9_error() is not on a performance
    critical path, using strerror() with a mutex ought to be fine. So,
    fix the build by using strerror() to replace strerror_r(). The steps
    would then become: Acquire the mutex first, invoke strerror(), copy
    the string from strerror() to the designated buffer and then drop the
    mutex.
