The "edit" option allows the user to directly modify the hunk to be
applied.
If the modified hunk returned is not an applicable patch, we give the
opportunity to try again.
For this new attempt we provide, again, the original hunk; the user
has to repeat the modification from scratch.
Instead, let's give them the faulty modified patch back, so they can
identify and fix the problem.
If they really want to start over with a fresh patch they still can
say 'no' to cancel the "edit" and start anew [*].
* In the old script-based version of "add -p", this "no" meant
discarding the current hunk and moving on to the next one.
This changed, presumably unintentionally, during the conversion
to C in bcdd297b78 (built-in add -p: implement hunk editing,
2019-12-13).
Now makes perfect sense not to move to the next hunk when the
user requests to discard their edits.

The message "saying 'no' discards!" comes from ac083c47ea
(git-add--interactive: manual hunk editing mode, 2008-07-03).
I think it was referring to discarding user modifications, not the
current hunk; which is what we were doing then (and now regaining).
However, we stopped behaving that way in 2b8ea7f3c7 (add -p:
calculate offset delta for edited patches, 2018-03-05), perhaps for
some reason I'm missing.
Therefore, this patch also modifies what we did, possibly
unintentionally, in 2b8ea7f3c7.
Thanks.
