This is the only remaining attribute that is commonly
supported (at least by xterm) that we don't support. Let's
add it for completeness.

This was mostly for fun.  I can't think of a way in which it would be
useful, and I'm not sure how compelling completionism is as an argument
for inclusion. I'm OK if we drop this one.

It indeed is fun and it even makes sense in this context:

    $ ./git -c diff.color.old='red strike' show

Ooh, I hadn't thought of that. It's a bit noisy for my tastes in a
line-oriented diff, but with --color-words, it actually helps quite a
bit (try it on the documentation patch from this series, for example).
