[PATCHv2 2/5] travis-ci: use 'set -e' in the 32 bit Linux build job

The script 'ci/run-linux32-build.sh' running inside the Docker container of the 32 bit Linux build job uses an && chain to break the build if one of the commands fails. This is problematic for two reasons:

  - The && chain is broken, because there is this in the middle:
    test -z $HOST_UID || (CI_USER="ci" && useradd -u $HOST_UID $CI_USER) &&
    Luckily it is broken in a way that it didn't lead to false
    successes.  If installing dependencies fails, then the rest of the
    first && chain is skipped and execution resumes  after the ||
    operator.  At that point $HOST_UID is still unset, causing
    'useradd' to error out with "invalid user ID 'ci'", which in turn
    causes the second && chain to abort the script and thus break the
    build.
  - All other 'ci/*' scripts use 'set -e' to break the build if one of
    the commands fails.  This inconsistency among these scripts is
    asking for trouble: I forgot about the && chain more than once
    while working on this patch series.

Enable 'set -e' for the whole script and for the commands executed under 'su' as well.

While touching every line in the 'su' command block anyway, change their indentation to use a tab instead of spaces.
