    libdwfl: dwfl_standard_argp should not fail when not able to attach Dwfl.
    
    As pointed out in https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1107654
    commit 191080 introduced a thinko that caused dwfl_standard_argp
    to fail if the Dwfl couldn't be attached. Instead of generating a warning
    as the comment intended, the failure would be fatal. But even warning
    about dwfl_core_file_attach () or dwfl_linux_proc_attach () failing
    would be a mistake. The caller/user might not be interested in such
    a non-fatal issue. So just ignore if the call failed for whatever reason.
    If the caller is interested in warning up front about this issue, then
    dwfl_pid () should be called to check the Dwfl is attached. Things should
    work just fine for anything that doesn't call any of the dwfl_state related
    functions.

    libdwfl: Record dwfl_attach_state error and return it on failure.
    
    When dwfl_attach_state fails functions that need the process state should
    return the error that caused the attach to fail. Use this in the backtrace
    test to signal any attach failure. This makes sure that architectures that
    don't provide unwinder support get properly detected (and the tests SKIPs)
    Also don't assert when trying to attach a non-core ELF file, but return an
    error to indicate failure.
