This adds DIFF_WHITESPACE color class (default = reverse red) to
colored diff output to let you catch common whitespace errors.

 - trailing whitespaces at the end of line
 - a space followed by a tab in the indent

In gitweb/gitweb.perl, around %feature hash definition, we have:

        <TAB> # <SP> <TAB> 'sub' ...

and I think that is exception to the "no space followed by tab" rule.

Read the description again.  No space IN INDENT that is followed
by tab.
