We used to print "Reading from helper 'git-remote-https' failed" in this

useful message already to stderr, and the extra line just confused
people. The downside, as you noticed, is that when the helper dies
without printing an error, the user is left with no message.
I would like to suggest to return this printout, see patch below. This
would be a revert of this commit:

I think that in a rare case of error this extra-printout wouldn't hurt.
I also made this message more user friendly, without mentioning the term
"helper".
