util: moved nt_errstr() into common code
this brings nt_errstr() into common code, using the new talloc_stackframe_exists() to ensure that we only allocate an error string using talloc_tos() if a talloc stackframe does currently exists. This makes it safe to use in external libraries Pair-Programmed-With: Andrew Bartlett <abartlet@samba.org>
