[PATCH 8/8] Resurrect "diff-lib.c: adjust position of i-t-a entries in diff"

["Nguyễn Thái Ngọc Duy" <pclouds@gmail.com>]

The original commit d95d728aba06a34394d15466045cbdabdada58a2 was
reverted in commit 78cc1a540ba127b13f2f3fd531777b57f3a9cd46 because we
were (and still are) not ready for a new world order. A lot more
investigation must be done to see what is impacted. See the 78cc1a5 for
details.

This patch takes a smaller and safer step. The new behavior is
controlled by SHIFT_INTENT_TO_ADD flag. We can gradually move more diff
users to the new behavior after we are sure it's safe to do so. This
flag is exposed to outside as "--shift-ita".

"git status" sets this flag unconditionally to display i-t-a entries
correctly. See d95d728 for details about "git status" and i-t-a entries.
