[PATCH] Nicer error messages in case saving an object to db goes wrong

[PATCH] Nicer error messages in case saving an object to db goes wrong

[Petr Baudis]

Currently the error e.g. when pushing to a read-only repository is quite
confusing, this attempts to clean it up, unifies error reporting between
various object writers and uses error() on couple more places.
