Refactor handling of error_string in receive-pack
I discovered we did not send an ng line in the report-status feedback
if the ref was not updated because the repository has the config
option receive.denyNonFastForwards enabled. I think the reason this
happened is that it is simply too easy to forget to set error_string
when returning back a failure from update()
We now return an ng line for a non-fastforward update, which in
turn will cause send-pack to exit with a non-zero exit status.
Hence the modified test.
This refactoring changes update to return a const char* describing
the error, which execute_commands always loads into error_string.
The result is what I think is cleaner code, and allows us to
initialize the error_string member to NULL when we read_head_info.
I want error_string to be NULL in all commands before we call
execute_commands, so that we can reuse the run_hook function to
execute a new pre-receive hook.
