Allow compiler to select an strerror_r stringify

On Alpine (and potentially other systems) that don't identify their runtime correctly there is an issue with the string conversion
Specifically, alpine linux and musl where the errno_to_string is incorrectly called.
To fix this I have added two overloaded functions and use auto err to allow the compiler to detect the actual types returned and call the correct method for conversion
