nbd: Don't lose server's error to NBD_CMD_BLOCK_STATUS

When the server replies with a (structured [*]) error to
NBD_CMD_BLOCK_STATUS, without any extent information sent first, the
client code was blindly throwing away the server's error code and
instead telling the caller that EIO occurred.  This has been broken
since its introduction in 78a33ab5 (v2.12, where we should have called:
   error_setg(&local_err, "Server did not reply with any status extents");
   nbd_iter_error(&iter, false, -EIO, &local_err);
to declare the situation as a non-fatal error if no earlier error had
already been flagged, rather than just blindly slamming iter.err and
iter.ret), although it is more noticeable since commit 7f86068d, which
actually tries hard to preserve the server's code thanks to a separate
iter.request_ret.

[*] The spec is clear that the server is also permitted to reply with
a simple error, but that's a separate fix.

I was able to provoke this scenario with a hack to the server, then
seeing whether ENOMEM makes it back to the caller:
