bug#33295: Unhandled error in log-view-find-revision

[Juri Linkov]

0. emacs -Q

1. in the root of a vc-controlled directory:

 C-x v L   ;; vc-print-root-log

2. on any revision

 f         ;; log-view-find-revision

fails with an error:
vc-find-backend-function: Cannot open load file: No such file or directory, 
vc-nil

and with non-nil ‘debug-on-error’ shows a backtrace that refers to 
‘require(vc-nil)’.

This is because the value of ‘log-view-vc-fileset’ in that *vc-change-log* 
buffer
is a directory.

This patch changes it to display a nicer error:
