[PATCH v5 3/7] git-p4: add p4-pre-submit exit text

Message-ID
<5f2b47bf6aa2686d2c8d9a47f73daed59cd94af5.1581447485.git.gitgitgadget@gmail.com>
In-Reply-To
<pull.698.v5.git.git.1581447484.gitgitgadget@gmail.com>
From: Ben Keene <seraphire@gmail.com>

When the p4-pre-submit exits with a non-zero exit code, the application will abort the process with no additional information presented to the user. This can be confusing for new users as it may not be clear that the p4-pre-submit action caused the error.

Add text to explain why the program aborted the submit action.
