avoid SIGPIPE warnings for aliases

When git executes an alias that specifies an external
command, it will complain if the alias dies due to a signal.
This is usually a good thing, as signal deaths are
unexpected. However, SIGPIPE is not unexpected for many
commands which produce a lot of output; it is intended that
the user closing the pager would kill them them via SIGPIPE.

As a result, the user might see annoying messages in a
scenario like this:

  $ cat ~/.gitconfig
  [alias]
  lgbase = log --some-options
  lg = !git lgbase --more-options
  lg2 = !git lgbase --other-options

  $ git lg -p
  [user hits 'q' to exit pager]
  error: git lgbase --more-options died of signal 13
  fatal: While expanding alias 'lg': 'git lgbase --more-options': Success

Many users won't see this, because we execute the external
command with the shell, and a POSIX shell will silently
rewrite the signal-death exit code into 128+signal, and we
will treat it like a normal exit code. However, this does
not always happen:

  1. If the sub-command does not have shell metacharacters,
     we will skip the shell and exec it directly, getting
     the signal code.

  2. Some shells do not do this rewriting; for example,
     setting SHELL_PATH set to zsh will reveal this problem.

This patch squelches the message, and let's git exit
silently (with the same exit code that a shell would use in
case of a signal).

The first line of the message comes from run-command's
wait_or_whine. To silence that message, we remain quiet
anytime we see SIGPIPE.

The second line comes from handle_alias itself. It calls
die_errno whenever run_command returns a negative value.
However, only -1 indicates a syscall error where errno has
something useful (note that it says the useless "success"
above). Instead, we treat negative returns from run_command
(except for -1) as a normal code to be passed to exit.
