When re-submitting a patch series, it is often helpful (for reviewers)
to include an interdiff or range-diff against the previous version.
Doing so requires manually running git-diff or git-range-diff and
copy/pasting the result into the cover letter of the new version.

This series automates the process by introducing git-format-patch
options --interdiff and --range-diff which insert such a diff into the
cover-letter or into the commentary section of the lone patch of a
1-patch series. In the latter case, the interdiff or range-diff is
indented to avoid confusing git-am and human readers.

I gave up after 10/14. But what I've seen is nice (yes I have a couple
comments here and there but you probably won't need to update
anything).

Thanks for the review comments.
