git-p4: handle "Translation of file content failed"

A P4 repository can get into a state where it contains a file with
type UTF-16 that does not contain a valid UTF-16 BOM. If git-p4
attempts to retrieve the file then the process crashes with a
"Translation of file content failed" error.

More info here: http://answers.perforce.com/articles/KB/3117

Fix this by detecting this error and retrieving the file as binary
instead. The result in Git is the same.

Known issue: This works only if git-p4 is executed in verbose mode.
In normal mode no exceptions are thrown and git-p4 just exits.
