bug#72547: [PATCH 9/9] posix.c: Set errno when pipe2 is not available and flags provided.

If pipe2 is not available (e.g. on MacOS) and flags are set,
SCM_SYSERROR was correctly signaled, however errno was not set, so it
reported as:

    Undefined error: 0

That sucks both in tests (the test is not skipped) and in actual
usage (user has no idea what went wrong).

So set errno to ENOSYS as well.

* libguile/posix.c (scm_pipe2) [!HAVE_PIPE2] <c_flags>: Set errno to
ENOSYS.
