wrapper: implement xopen()

wrapper: implement xopen()

A common usage pattern of open() is to check if it was successful, and
die() if it was not:

	int fd = open(path, O_WRONLY | O_CREAT, 0777);
	if (fd < 0)
		die_errno(_("Could not open '%s' for writing."), path);

Implement a wrapper function xopen() that does the above so that we can
save a few lines of code, and make the die() messages consistent.
