Teach "git add -i" to colorize whitespace errors
Rather than replicating the colorization logic of "git diff-files" we
rely on "git diff-files" itself. This guarantees consistent colorization
in and outside "git add -i".
Seeing as speed is not a concern here (the bottleneck is how fast the
user can read, not how fast "git diff-files" runs) we do this by
actually running it twice, once without color and once with.
In this way as the whitespace colorization provided by "git diff-files"
evolves (per-path attributes, new classes of whitespace error), "git
add -i" will automatically benefit from it and stay in synch.
Also, by working with two sets of diff output (an uncolorized one for
internal processing and a colorized one for display only) we minimize
the risk of regressions because the changes required to implement this
are minimally invasive.
