error: Avoid unnecessary error_propagate() after error_setg()

Replace

    error_setg(&err, ...);
    error_propagate(errp, err);

by

    error_setg(errp, ...);

Related pattern:

    if (...) {
        error_setg(&err, ...);
        goto out;
    }
    ...
 out:
    error_propagate(errp, err);
    return;

When all paths to label out are that way, replace by

    if (...) {
        error_setg(errp, ...);
        return;
    }

and delete the label along with the error_propagate().

When we have at most one other path that actually needs to propagate,
and maybe one at the end that where propagation is unnecessary, e.g.

    foo(..., &err);
    if (err) {
        goto out;
    }
    ...
    bar(..., &err);
 out:
    error_propagate(errp, err);
    return;

move the error_propagate() to where it's needed, like

    if (...) {
        foo(..., &err);
        error_propagate(errp, err);
        return;
    }
    ...
    bar(..., errp);
    return;

and transform the error_setg() as above.

In some places, the transformation results in obviously unnecessary
error_propagate().  The next few commits will eliminate them.

Bonus: the elimination of gotos will make later patches in this series
easier to review.

Candidates for conversion tracked down with this Coccinelle script:

    @@
    identifier err, errp;
    expression list args;
    @@
    -    error_setg(&err, args);
    +    error_setg(errp, args);
         ... when != err
         error_propagate(errp, err);
