[PATCH 2/3] tools/perf: Rename variables for clarity

[Sukadev Bhattiprolu]

The dso__load* functions return the number symbols they were able
to load or -1 in case of error.

But it is a bit confusing to determine 'if (err > 0)' indicates success
or failure and we have to step several functions deep to find that out.

Rename the variable 'err' so it is hopefully easier to understand.
