util: Detect more I/O errors

Browse source 
Many of GRUB's utilities don't check anywhere near all the possible
write errors.  For example, if grub-install runs out of space when
copying a file, it won't notice.  There were missing checks for the
return values of write, fflush, fsync, and close (or the equivalents on
other OSes), all of which must be checked.

I tried to be consistent with the existing logging practices of the
various hostdisk implementations, but they weren't entirely consistent
to start with so I used my judgement.  The result at least looks
reasonable on GNU/Linux when I provoke a write error:

  Installing for x86_64-efi platform.
  grub-install: error: cannot copy `/usr/lib/grub/x86_64-efi-signed/grubx64.efi.signed' to `/boot/efi/EFI/debian/grubx64.efi': No space left on device.

There are more missing checks in other utilities, but this should fix
the most critical ones.

Fixes Debian bug #922741.
