git-p4: avoid shell interpretation of commit ids in applyCommit

applyCommit() builds a `git diff-tree ... | git apply ...` pipeline as a
shell command string, interpolating the commit id and running it via
os.system()/system(shell=True). The id usually comes from `git rev-list`
output (safe, plain SHA-1s), but it can also come verbatim from the
user-supplied `--commit` option, which is never validated
(git-p4.py:2620-2631). A value such as `$(some-command)` passed to
`--commit` is executed by the shell during command substitution, even
though the value is wrapped in double quotes.

Replace the shell pipeline with two argument-vector subprocess calls
connected directly through a pipe, matching the pattern already used
throughout this file (read_pipe, read_pipe_lines, p4_system). This
removes the shell entirely, rather than relying on quoting the
interpolated value.

The shell-based call that applied the patch for real went through
git-p4.py's own system() helper, which raises CalledProcessError on a
non-zero exit status, so a failed apply aborted the submit. Keep that
behaviour by giving the new helper the same ignore_error contract
system() uses: it raises unless the caller asks for the status, and the
two callers that test the status for themselves ask for it.

Add a regression test exercising `git p4 submit --commit` with a shell
metacharacter payload, verifying it is never interpreted.
