From: Feng Yang <yangfeng@kylinos.cn>

The error message printed here only uses the previous err value,
which results in it being printed as 0.
When bpf_map__attach_struct_ops encounters an error,
it uses libbpf_err_ptr(err) to set errno = -err and returns NULL.
Therefore, strerror(errno) can be used to fix this issue.

Fix before:
run_subtest:FAIL:1019 bpf_map__attach_struct_ops failed for map pro_epilogue: err=0

Fix after:
run_subtest:FAIL:1019 bpf_map__attach_struct_ops failed for map pro_epilogue: Bad file descriptor

Yes, but libbpf_get_error() is better.
And decimal number is preferred as ASSERT_OK_PTR() macro does.
