Improve GIT_EUSER handling

This adds giterr_user_cancel to return GIT_EUSER and clear any
error message that is sitting around.  As a result of using that
in places, we need to be more thorough with capturing errors that
happen inside a callback when used internally.  To help with that,
this also adds giterr_capture and giterr_restore so that when we
internally use a foreach-type function that clears errors and
converts them to GIT_EUSER, it is easier to restore not just the
return value, but the actual error message text.
