vshCommandRun would output the error in vshReportError, but in the
meantime it is overwriten by the virResetLastError in virDomainFree.

We have a vshSaveLibvirtError helper that can be used here to save
the error from virBitmap* APIs from being reset by virDomainFree,
if we decide to use it.

This change is unrelated to the rest of the patch and while it looks
nicer I am afraid that leaving the return value unchecked here would make
coverity complain.

I wrote it with the redundant 'goto cleanup', because I didn't want to
leave it unchecked and I don't like the ignore_value macro.

We do not include the command name for other errors.

If we reused the error from virBitmapParse, we'd get:
error: invalid argument: Failed to parse bitmap '11'

It's a bit more confusing than 'invalid cpulist' (especially since 11
is a wrong bitmap because I only have 4 host CPUs).

I wonder if it's better to fix virBitmapParse to report better errors
(e.g. number out of range) and use it here, or just report generic
"invalid cpulist" for all cases.

This one does not print the wrong string.
