When calling the "p4" program, use process functions that can have handlers for remote file names, and pass those functions the local version of the file name on the remote host where "p4" will run. The one difficult function to replace is 'call-process-region', which has no handled variant 'process-file-region'. For this we copy a process-file-region implementation from the 'xref' package.
The caller of p4--process-file-region was passing the usual "delete" parameter, but the function wasn't accepting it. The mis-match caused "Wrong type argument: stringp, nil" for some p4 commands, such as the C-c C-c (p4-form-commit) at the end of a "M-x p4-change" session. Bug introduced in previous commit, introducing p4--process-file-region
