[PATCH 3/9] tools/nolibc/stdio: remove perror if NOLIBC_IGNORE_ERRNO is set

From: Benjamin Berg <benjamin.berg at intel.com>

There is no errno variable when NOLIBC_IGNORE_ERRNO is defined. As such,
the perror function does not make any sense then and cannot compile.

Fixes: acab7bcdb1bc ("tools/nolibc/stdio: add perror() to report the errno value")
