Modern POSIX-1.2024 systems might only have getaddrinfo(3) but not gethostbyname(3) (and hstrerror(3)). Git will only use getaddrinfo in this case and not hstrerror, but will still attempt to replace the missing hstrerror function, and the build fails due to the missing the error constants. This change declares githstrerror only if it is going to be used.
