system: propagate Error to gdbserver_start (and other device setups)

This started as a clean-up to properly pass a Error handler to the
gdbserver_start so we could do the right thing for command line and
HMP invocations.

Now that we have cleaned up foreach_device_config_or_exit() in earlier
patches we can further simplify by it by passing &error_fatal instead
of checking the return value. Having a return value is still useful
for HMP though so tweak the return to use a simple bool instead.
