The "edit" option allows the user to directly modify the hunk to be
applied.
If the modified hunk returned by the user is not an applicable patch,
they will be given the opportunity to try again.
For this new attempt we give them the original hunk; they have to
repeat the modification from scratch.
Instead, let's give them the 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 hunk and moving on to the next one.
This changed, probably unintentionally, during its conversion to
C in bcdd297b78 (built-in add -p: implement hunk editing,
2019-12-13).
It now makes more sense not to move to the next block when the
user requests to discard their edits.

In this iteration, I'm modifying the message 'saying no discards' to
make its meaning more explicit, perhaps also gaining some clarity
along the way for the user who wants to restart editing from the
original patch.
In the test, I'm adding "n q" to the script as suggested by Phillip.
And, just a bit of mental peace by restoring the hunk from the backup
before trimming the two strbuf.
Thanks.
