Description
On macOS 10.15 - and perhaps other systems/OSs - builds fail due to use of errno:
/opt/local/var/macports/build/_opt_macports_sources_ports_latest_llm_llama.cpp/llama.cpp/work/llama.cpp-4508/src/llama-mmap.cpp:159:86: error: use of undeclared identifier 'errno'
throw std::runtime_error(format("failed to open %s: %s", fname, strerror(errno)));
^
/opt/local/var/macports/build/_opt_macports_sources_ports_latest_llm_llama.cpp/llama.cpp/work/llama.cpp-4508/src/llama-mmap.cpp:174:73: error: use of undeclared identifier 'errno'
throw std::runtime_error(format("ftell error: %s", strerror(errno)));

throw std::runtime_error(format("seek error: %s", strerror(errno)));

errno = 0;

[...etc, etc...]
The fix is to simply add an include for <cerrno>. An issue was submitted to upstream, along with a corresponding PR:
- Issue 11295 - Compile bug: llama-mmap.cpp: use of errno without including <cerrno>, causes build failures on some systems
- PR 11296 - fix: llama-mmap: add include for cerrno
I'll add the fix to the existing PR, encompassing separate build fixes for earlier macOS releases:

Upstream just accepted and merged the contributed fix, so it should be present in the next release.
