[PATCH v3 4/8] scalar-delete: do not 'die()' in 'delete_enlistment()'

From
Victoria Dye via GitGitGadget <gitgitgadget@gmail.com>

Message-ID
<aced836aaa39c4c619d03510ba2343527e3a24af.1660858853.git.gitgitgadget@gmail.com>
In-Reply-To
<pull.1324.v3.git.1660858853.gitgitgadget@gmail.com>
From: Victoria Dye <vdye@github.com>

Rather than exiting with 'die()' when 'delete_enlistment()' encounters an error, return an error code with the appropriate message. There's no need for an abrupt exit with 'die()' in 'delete_enlistment()' because its only caller ('cmd_delete()') properly cleans up allocated resources and returns the 'delete_enlistment()' return value as its own exit code.
