util/error: Introduce warn_report_err_once()

Depending on the configuration of the host and VM, a passthrough
device may generate recurring DMA mapping errors at runtime. In such
cases, reporting the issue once is sufficient.

We have already the warn/error_report_once() routines taking a format
and arguments. Using the same design pattern, add a new warning
variant taking an 'Error *' parameter.
