examples: improve global init, error checks and returning errors

- add `curl_global_init()` and `curl_global_cleanup()` where missing.
- check the result of `curl_global_init()` where missing.
- return the last curl error from `main()`.
- drop Win32-specific socket initialization in favor of `curl_global_init()`.
- rename some outliers to `res` for curl result code.
- fix cleanup in some error cases.

Inspired by Joshua's report on examples.

Closes #19053
