That's not an unfixable mistake: sda3 is at the end of the partition table, so if it's deleted, sda2 can be safely resized offline. For example,

  parted /dev/sda rm 3
  parted /dev/sda "resizepart 2 -0"
  resize2fs /dev/sda2 # for ext2/3/4

And then you can create a swap file or volume on sda2, so long as it isn't on btrfs.
