Subject: [PATCH] add -i: revisit hunk on editor failure

Similar to the behaviour for editing a commit message, let terminating
the editor with a failure abort the current hunk edit and revisit the
option selection for the hunk.

I find it much easier to type :cq in vi than to read the helpful
message that's in the comments and then delete all the hunk lines.
Besides, I already learned how to abort a commit message this way.
