The savannah gitweb interface is regularly rate-limited or unavailable, so
retry it and then fall back to the official gnulib mirror on GitHub rather
than failing the whole GNU testsuite job.
The --verbose branch of format_verbose_difference padded the byte-offset
column with a plain subtraction while the --print-bytes branch above it
already used saturating_sub. offset_width is derived from the smaller
file's metadata length, so a file reporting length 0 that still yields
bytes (/dev/zero) collapses it to 2 and the subtraction underflows once
the offset reaches three digits.
Fixes#265
This is not needed now that tests automatically look for `gpatch` on mac
since commit 1254f146f8 ("tests: validate "patch" and "ed" commands
once, print meaningful messages (#226)")
The fewer PATH changes, the better.

When we fail to find `gpatch`, don't say that we failed to find `patch`.
Cosmetic fix to commit 1254f146f8 ("tests: validate "patch" and "ed"
commands once, print meaningful messages (#226)")
This is an extremely minor fix because the error message already printed
"gpatch validation failed, no such file or directory" even before this
commit.
