reftable: adapt writer_add_record() to propagate block_writer_add() errors
Previously, writer_add_record() would flush the current block and retry appending the record whenever block_writer_add() returned any nonzero error. This forced an assumption that every failure meant the block was full, even when errors such as memory allocation or I/O failures occurred. Update the writer_add_record() to inspect the error code returned by block_writer_add() and only flush and reinitialize the writer when the error is REFTABLE_ENTRY_TOO_BIG_ERROR. For any other error, immediately propagate it. Signed-off-by: Meet Soni <meetsoni3017@gmail.com> Acked-by: Patrick Steinhardt <ps@pks.im> Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <gitster@pobox.com>
