In [1] the strbuf_release(&msgbuf) was moved into this
do_pick_commit(), but didn't take into account the case of [2], where
we'd return before the strbuf_release(&msgbuf).

Then when the "fixup" support was added in [3] this leak got worse, as
in this error case we added another place where we'd "return" before
reaching the strbuf_release().

This changes the behavior so that we'll call
update_abort_safety_file() in these cases where we'd previously
"return", but as noted in [4] "update_abort_safety_file() is a no-op
when rebasing and you're changing code that is only run when
rebasing.". Here "no-op" refers to the early return in
update_abort_safety_file() if git_path_seq_dir() doesn't exist.
