[PATCH] Seek back to current filepos when mmap()ing with NO_MMAP

"git-index-pack --fix-thin" relies on mmap() not changing the current file position (otherwise the pack will be corrupted when writing the final SHA1). Meet that expectation.

	Sorry for not catching that earlier. It only affects platforms
	where you have to set NO_MMAP=YesPlease, anyway.

Thanks! I was wondering for some considerable time why the hell t5500-fetch-pack fails.

BTW, I extended error handling in that mmap.  Dunno why.

    Seek back to current filepos when mmap()ing with NO_MMAP, eh improved
