We sometimes use fprintf() instead of "error" or "warning" for output
compatibility with an older version, or because it's written in an old
style.
But as you're changing the anyway let's not re-invent error_errno() or
warning_errno(), but just use those.
We could also s/^Unable/unable/ in the message while at it, per
CodingGuidelines.

This seems like a good isolated change, but FWIW I think what we really
should be doing here is using the "report_garbage" facility added in
543c5caa6c9 (count-objects: report garbage files in pack directory too,
2013-02-15) and 478f34d2b6e (gc: remove garbage .idx files from pack
dir, 2015-11-03) for "pack".
I.e. we have already iterated over "pack" and found all the files
therein, and in packfile.c error_errno() etc. That we're
re-opendir()-ing the "pack", walking it again etc. doesn't make much
sense, or does it?
Then the:
remove_temporary_files(get_object_directory());
Also seems odd, just a few lines above we passed "prune_cruft" to
"for_each_loose_file_in_objdir()", haven't we already walked the loose
object dir & removed temporary cruft there?
