Subject: [PATCH] curl_easy_strerror parameter documentation fix

This makes the example more that the error code should be passed into libcurl function curl_easy_strerror.

Previously, this documentation told me to use the variable name "res" as input to curl_easy_strerror.
This "res" variable is undefined. The obvious replacement for "res" is the existing "response" variable.

The response variable is a curl-simple-https ServerResponse Struct. It is incompatible as a parameter for curl_easy_strerror.
This fix makes explicit that the curl_easy_strerror takes in the response code.
