hw/xwin: Show any fatal error message

Report the fatal error message in the dialog we pop up, rather than just
referring the user to the logfile.

v2: Do this a better way since the "Pass the FatalError message to
OsVendorFatalError" patch has landed, and OsVendorFatalError() now gets passed
the fatal error message
