bisect--helper: return error codes from `cmd_bisect__helper()`

Since we want to get rid of git-bisect.sh, it would be necessary
to convert bisect.c exit() calls to return statements so
that errors can be reported. Let's prepare for that by making
it possible to return different error codes than just 0 or 1.

Different error codes might enable a bisecting script calling the
bisect command that uses this function to do different things
depending on the exit status of the bisect command.
