Here is an updated patch that udpate the stage diff commands as
well. It doesn't touch git-diff-file-merge-head since that already
uses prefix arguments. Don't know if there is a solution to that.

I'd suggest to change git-diff-file-merge-head to act on the current
file too. This means that the behavior is consistent across all diff
functions, even if we lose the ability to do git-diff-file-merge-head on
all marked files. Later on we may want to use a different mechanism than
the prefix arg to toggle the marked file behavior for all diff functions
(something like the pcl-cvs toggle-marks function).

Also make sure to check the callers of the diff functions you are
changing; at least git-log-edit-diff got broken by your change, there
may be others.
