[PATCHv1 1/3] git-p4: raise exceptions from p4CmdList based on error from p4 server

[Luke Diamand <luke@diamand.org>]

This change lays some groundwork for better handling of rowcount errors
from the server, where it fails to send us results because we requested
too many.

It adds an option to p4CmdList() to return errors as a Python exception.

The exceptions are derived from P4Exception (something went wrong),
P4ServerException (the server sent us an error code) and
P4RequestSizeException (we requested too many rows/results from the
server database).

This makes makes the code that handles the errors a bit easier.

The default behavior is unchanged; the new code is enabled with a flag.
