libnss_tcb: Match interfaces with NSS documention.

According to [1] the interfaces provided should be of return-type
'enum nss_status', and take 'int *errnop' as the fourth (and last)
parameter.  Additionally the returned status values should be accompanied
by a corresponding ERRNO value [2] passed by the errnop pointer.

+	According to [1] the interfaces provided should be of return-type
+	'enum nss_status', and take 'int *errnop' as the fourth (and last)

+	[2] https://www.gnu.org/software/libc/manual/html_node/NSS-Modules-Interface.html
+	* libs/nss.c (_nss_tcb_setspent): Adapt return-type and use return
+	values from documented macro.
+	(_nss_tcb_endspent): Likewise.
+	(_nss_tcb_getspnam_r): Adapt return-type, change fourth parameter
+	to be 'int *errnop', use return values from documented macros, and
+	set proper errno in errnop before returning.
+	(_nss_tcb_getspent_r): Likewise.
+
 	libnss_tcb: Disallow potentially-malicious user names in getspnam(3).
 	IEEE Std 1003.1-2001 allows only the following characters to appear
 	in group- and usernames: letters, digits, underscores, periods,
