import: report directory-relative paths in error messages (
issue5224)
Import uses paths relative to the root of the repository, so when
user imports patch with paths relative to the current working directory
import aborts with 'unable to find file for patching'.
This patch improves this situation by warning the user that paths are
relative to the root of repository when patching fails.
