tools/nolibc: __sysret: support syscalls who return a pointer

No official reference states the errno range, here aligns with musl and
glibc and uses [-MAX_ERRNO, -1] instead of all negative ones.

- musl: src/internal/syscall_ret.c
- glibc: sysdeps/unix/sysv/linux/sysdep.h

The MAX_ERRNO used by musl and glibc is 4095, just like the one nolibc
defined in tools/include/nolibc/errno.h.
