Print error when ifconfig sff is NOPERM
When you do not have the right to query transceiver infos, `ifconfig sff` does
not print any error even though the command returns EPERM.
This diff enables the display of an error message to inform the user he lacks
the privilege to query transceiver infos (`ifconfig sffdump` already prints an
error message).
