log: Add a way to log error-return values
When functions return an error it propagates up the stack to the point
where it is reported. Often the error code provides enough information
about the root cause of the error that this is obvious what went wrong.
However in some cases the error may be hard to trace. For example if a
driver uses several devices to perform an operation, it may not be
obvious which one failed.
Add a log_ret() macro to help with this. This can be used to wrap any
error-return value. The logging system will then output a log record when
the original error is generated, making it easy to trace the call stack
of the error.
This macro can significantly impact code size, so its use is controlled
by a Kconfig option, which is enabled for sandbox.
