afs: Improve FS server rotation error handling
Improve the error handling in FS server rotation by: (1) Cache the latest useful error value for the fs operation as a whole in struct afs_fs_cursor separately from the error cached in the afs_addr_cursor struct. The one in the address cursor gets clobbered occasionally. Copy over the error to the fs operation only when it's something we'd be interested in passing to userspace. (2) Make it so that EDESTADDRREQ is the default that is seen only if no addresses are available to be accessed. (3) When calling utility functions, such as checking a volume status or probing a fileserver, don't let a successful result clobber the cached error in the cursor; instead, stash the result in a temporary variable until it has been assessed. (4) Don't return ETIMEDOUT or ETIME if a better error, such as ENETUNREACH, is already cached. (5) On leaving the rotation loop, turn any remote abort code into a more useful error than ECONNABORTED.
