Return error from RequestNetbootv4
The current behavior of `RequestNetbootv4` is potentially dangerous because when it reaches the max number of retries, it returns `conversation, nil` (line 91) back to the caller, even if `client.Exchange()` (line 77) returned an `err`. This leads to a situation where the caller will see `err == nil` but incorrect data returned via the other parameter.
This changes the behavior to match the behavior of `RequestNetbootv6`. If this change isn't allowed because it's not backwards compatible then we should at least consider returning `nil, nil` instead of `conversation, nil` on the final retry.
