[PATCH v2 3/4] bisect: document run behavior with exit codes 126 and 127

["René Scharfe" <l.s.r@web.de>]

Shells report non-executable and missing commands with exit codes 126
and 127, respectively.  For historical reasons "git bisect run"
interprets them as indicating a bad commit, though.  Document the
current behavior by adding basic tests that cover these cases.
