perf dso: Use stored fd error instead of stale errno in file_read() and file_size()
file_read() and file_size() use ret = -errno when
dso__data(dso)->fd is negative after try_to_open_dso() fails. By this
point errno has been through mutex_lock(), nsinfo__mountns_enter(), and
multiple open() attempts inside try_to_open_dso() — it no longer
reflects the actual open failure. If errno happens to be 0, ret = 0
looks like EOF rather than an error, and file_size() callers like
dso__data_size() would then report a zero-sized file instead of
failing.
dso__data(dso)->fd is always negative on failure — -errno from
__open_dso() when no filename could be built (e.g. -EINVAL, -ENOENT),
or -1 when do_open() itself failed — and never 0, so use it directly
instead of reading the stale global errno.
No assert() or comment is needed after the assignment: the enclosing
if (dso__data(dso)->fd < 0) already guarantees ret < 0
