X3: Fix inconsistent error position for p vs p >> eps or repeat(1)[p] in error_handler

[Kojoley]

• Do not rely on iterator rollback on fail: Preparation to relax iterator rollback policy, which is also currently violated by not rolling back skipper almost everywhere, so this should fix postskip disabling.
• Remove unneeded iterator rollback: Under the current iterator rollback policy rollbacks could be omitted in compound parser which don't advance iterator themselves because the called subparser is responsible for rollback on failure. In reality these rollbacks are undoing skipper work what renders as inconsistency in error handling position (p vs p >> eps or repeat(1)[p]).

Fixes #712

This is a major move! Nice work @Kojoley.

It would be impossible to determine the correctness by just looking at the code. So I suggest adding tests for each of the changes (if there are no such tests yet).

I was planning to add more tests to have better coverage, but now I do not know when I will be able to continue the PR.
As you may know, Russia, my home country, has invaded Ukraine and currently is in an active war. I am very sad and depressed, millions of peaceful Ukrainians are suffering from inhumane decisions made by politicians which do not represent me and I had never chosen, but I still feel responsible and guilty. The only thing I could do now is to publicly say that I do not support the war with Ukraine and it should be stopped immediately.

I have high regard and respect for you, @Kojoley. This message further affirms that. I applaud you for making a statement. Peace!

I certainly want to echo Joel's statement.  I applaud your brave stance, and especially, the Ukrainians. The world (except maybe just communist China and North Korea), condemn the invasion. Hopefully he's not unhinged as some news reports suggest :((( (BTW, sorry Joel for the duplicate send).
