add -i (built-in): send error messages to stderr
The Perl version of that command already does that since a301973641f (add -p: print errors in separate color, 2009-02-05). The built-in version's development started by reimplementing the initial version from 5cde71d64af (git-add --interactive, 2006-12-10) for simplicity, though, which still printed error messages to stdout. Let's fix that by imitating the Perl version's behavior in the built-in version of that command.
