[PATCH v8 07/41] builtin/apply: make parse_single_patch() return -1 on error

To libify `git apply` functionality we have to signal errors to the caller instead of die()ing.

To do that in a compatible manner with the rest of the error handling in builtin/apply.c, parse_single_patch() should return a negative integer instead of calling die().

Let's do that by using error() and let's adjust the related test cases accordingly.
