[PATCH] qga/commands-posix: Make ga_wait_child() return boolean |

As the comment in qapi/error, dereferencing @errp requires
ERRP_GUARD():
* = Why, when and how to use ERRP_GUARD() =
*
* Without ERRP_GUARD(), use of the @errp parameter is restricted:
* - It must not be dereferenced, because it may be null.
...
* ERRP_GUARD() lifts these restrictions.
*
* To use ERRP_GUARD(), add it right at the beginning of the function.
* @errp can then be used without worrying about the argument being
* NULL or &error_fatal.
*
* Using it when it's not needed is safe, but please avoid cluttering
* the source with useless code.
Though currently ga_run_command() only gets &local_err instead of NULL
@errp, it's still better to follow the requirement to add the
ERRP_GUARD().
But as error.h suggested, the best practice for callee is to return
something to indicate success / failure.
So make ga_wait_child() return boolean and check the returned boolean in
ga_run_command() instead of dereferencing @errp, which eliminates the
need of ERRP_GUARD().
