Always increase the error count when I/O on a leg of a mirror fails.

The error count is used to decide whether to select an alternative
mirror leg.  If the target doesn't use the "handle_errors" feature, the
error count is not updated and the bio can get requeued forever by the
read callback.

Fix it by increasing error_count before the handle_errors feature
checking.
