tests: Improve error message if setting max processes to 1 fails

This has historically failed on Debian autobuilders, and as a result we
have had a patch for a long time that turned a failure here into a
g_test_skip(). It's not clear whether this still happens, so I'm now
assessing whether the patch can be dropped; but if the prlimit() call
can fail for whatever reason, it would be useful for the error message
to say what limit we were trying to set.
