[Tarantool-patches] [PATCH v12 7/8] applier: prevent nil dereference on applier rollback

[Cyrill Gorcunov <gorcunov@gmail.com>]

Currently when transaction rollback happens we just drop an existing
error setting ClientError to the replicaset.applier.diag. This action
leaves current fiber with diag=nil, which in turn leads to sigsegv once
diag_raise() called right after applier_apply_tx():

 | applier_f
 |   try {
 |   applier_subscribe
 |     applier_apply_tx
 |       // error happens
 |       txn_rollback
 |         diag_set(ClientError, ER_WAL_IO)
 |         diag_move(&fiber()->diag, &replicaset.applier.diag)
 |         // fiber->diag = nil
 |       applier_on_rollback
 |         diag_add_error(&applier->diag, diag_last_error(&replicaset.applier.diag)
 |         fiber_cancel(applier->reader);
 |     diag_raise() -> NULL dereference
 |   } catch { ... }

Thus:
 - use diag_set_error() instead of diag_move() to not drop error
   from a current fiber() preventing a nil dereference;
 - put fixme mark into the code: we need to rework it in a
   more sense way.

Fixes #4730
