Re: [PATCH v3] compat/winansi: fix die_lasterr() argument formatting

> During WinANSI initialization, duplicate_handle() reports the handle
> when DuplicateHandle() fails. die_lasterr() collects the formatting
> arguments in a va_list, but passes that va_list to die_errno() as an
> ordinary variadic argument. die_errno() consequently formats part of
> the va_list representation instead of the supplied handle, producing
> an incorrect fatal message.
> 
> The helper also converts GetLastError() to errno, losing the exact
> Windows error code.
> 
> Remove die_lasterr() and report GetLastError() directly at its four
> call sites, following the existing Windows diagnostic style. This
> passes the handle to the formatter correctly and preserves the Windows
> error code. Keep the existing %li representation of the handle.
