[PATCH v2 1/6] pathspec: provide a more descriptive die message

From
BWBrandon Williams <bmwill@google.com>

<20170511220427.192627-1-bmwill@google.com>

The current message displayed upon an internal error in 'init_pathspec_item()' isn't very descriptive and doesn't provide much context to where the error occurred. Update the error message to provide more context to where the error occured.
