Make giterr_set_str public There has been discussion for a while about making some set of the `giterr_set` type functions part of the public API for code that is implementing new backends to libgit2. This makes the `giterr_set_str()` and `giterr_set_oom()` functions public.

+ * attempt to append the system default error message for the last OS error
+ * that occurred and then clear the last error. The specific implementation
+ * of looking up and clearing this last OS error will vary by platform.
