Carry error status in printer list IPC message

Hi,

Currently the process forked to fetch printcap information from cups
does not include error status in its IPC message back to the parent.
As a result the parent is unable to differentiate between an empty
printer list and a failure to obtain the information from cups.

This patch-set converts the IPC message to an IDL defined format, which
includes the error status alongside the list of printers.

Cheers, David
