Thomas Haller c42f6f0997 daemon-helper: use _nm_strerror_r() to avoid non-thread-safe strerror() 
Yes, there probably are not multiple threads here. It's a matter of principle to
not use smelly functions.

Also, copy the "errno" value we want to print, before calling various functions.

nm-daemon-helper

A internal helper application that is spawned by NetworkManager to perform certain actions.

Currently all it does is doing a reverse DNS lookup, which cannot be done by NetworkManager because the operation requires to reconfigure the libc resolver (which is a process-wide operation).

This is not directly useful to the user.
