gpu: nova-core: preserve error information in gpu_name()

Change gpu_name() to return a Result instead of an Option. This avoids
silently discarding error information when parsing the GPU name string
from the GSP.

Update the callsite to log a warning with the error details on failure,
rather than just displaying "invalid GPU name".
