// Portable error handling functions. This is only necessary for host-side
// code that needs to be cross-platform; code that is only run on Unix should
// just use errno and strerror() for simplicity.
//
// There is some complexity since Windows has (at least) three different error
// numbers, not all of which share the same type:
// * errno: for C runtime errors.
// * GetLastError(): Windows non-socket errors.
// * WSAGetLastError(): Windows socket errors.
// errno can be passed to strerror() on all platforms, but the other two require
// special handling to get the error string. Refer to Microsoft documentation
// to determine which error code to check for each function.
