Is there a way to know if there has been I/O error(s) on a specific
disk or partition since boot other than parsing dmesg and hoping it's
both still there and in the expected format?
Of course that's if the error didn't kill the system in the first
place :-)

Use smartctl. It can be started in a monitor mode.
