These assignments comes from the very first commit e83c516 (Initial
revision of "git", the information manager from hell - 2005-04-07).
Back then we did not die() when errors happened so correct errno was
required.

Since 5d1a5c0 ([PATCH] Better error reporting for "git status" -
2005-10-01), read_index_from() learned to die rather than just return
-1 and these assignments became irrelevant. Remove them.

While at it, move die_errno() next to xmmap() call because it's the
mmap's error code that we care about. Otherwise if close(fd); fails,
it could overwrite mmap's errno.

 I saw the last hunk in this patch from 01/16 in Thomas's index v5
 series. But it looks more like an independent change. Thomas moved
 read_index_from code so this patch will cause conflicts with his
 series. It's a good change though, I think.
