disconnect from remote helpers more gently
When git spawns a remote helper program (like git-remote-http), the last thing we do before closing the pipe to the child process is to send a blank line, telling the helper that we are done issuing commands. However, the helper may already have exited, in which case the parent git process will receive SIGPIPE and die. In particular, this can happen with the remote-curl helper when it encounters errors during a push. The helper reports individual errors for each ref back to git-push, and then exits with a non-zero exit code. Depending on the exact timing of the write, the parent process may or may not receive SIGPIPE. This causes intermittent test failure in t5541.8, and is a side effect of 5238cbf (remote-curl: Fix push status report when all branches fail). Before that commit, remote-curl would not send the final blank line to indicate that the list of status lines was complete; it would just exit, closing the pipe. The parent git-push would notice the closed pipe while reading the status report and exit immediately itself, propagating the failing exit code. But post-5238cbf, remote-curl completes the status list before exiting, git-push actually runs to completion, and then it tries to cleanly disconnect the helper, leading to the SIGPIPE race above. This patch drops all error-checking when sending the final "we are about to hang up" blank line to helpers. There is nothing useful for the parent process to do about errors at that point anyway, and certainly failing to send our "we are done with commands" line to a helper that has already exited is not a problem.
