am -3: use merge_recursive() directly again

Last October, we had to change this code to run `git merge-recursive`
in a child process: git-am wants to print some helpful advice when the
merge failed, but the code in question was not prepared to return, it
die()d instead.

We are finally at a point when the code *is* prepared to return errors,
and can avoid the child process again.

This reverts commit c63d4b2 (am -3: do not let failed merge from
completing the error codepath, 2015-10-09), with the necessary changes
to adjust for the fact that Git's source code changed in the meantime
(such as: using OIDs instead of hashes in the recursive merge, and a
removed gender bias).

Note: the code now calls merge_recursive_generic() again. Unlike
merge_trees() and merge_recursive(), this function returns 0 upon success,
as most of Git's functions. Therefore, the error value -1 naturally is
handled correctly, and we do not have to take care of it specifically.
