[PATCH v3 2/2] diff: generate prettier filenames when using GIT_EXTERNAL_DIFF

[David Aguilar <davvid@gmail.com>]

Naturally, prep_temp_blob() did not care about filenames.
As a result, scripts that use GIT_EXTERNAL_DIFF ended up
with filenames such as ".diff_XXXXXX".

This specializes the GIT_EXTERNAL_DIFF code to generate
user-friendly filenames when creating temporary files.

Diffing "name.ext" now generates "XXXXXX_name.ext".
