offload: Better report failure to create the GC root directory.

Suggested by Ricardo Wurmus <ricardo.wurmus@mdc-berlin.de>.

* guix/scripts/offload.scm (register-gc-root)[script]: Replace
  'false-if-exception' with a finer-grain 'system-error handler.
  Provide the name of MACHINE in 'leave' error message.
