[PATCHv2 0/2] More diffs for commit/status

[Michael J Gruber <git@drmicha.warpmail.net>]

Trying to clean up my old RFCs, so here's a mini-series that

1) adds a test for "status -v" (the diff between HEAD and index) and
2) implements "status -v -v" (additional diff between index and worktree).

The idea is that in a case where "commit -v" would list fils with unstaged
changes one would get the diff for these changes with '-v -v' easily.

2/2 also sets the diff prefixes (a/,b/ etc.) for both diffs in the '-v -v'
case to a really verbose version to avoid any confusion between the two
types of diffs. We may want to do that for '-v' already, although that
would be a change in behavior.

The wording for the new prefixes is chosen after the status hints, although
they are not localised.

  t7508: test git status -v
  commit/status: show the index-worktree diff with -v -v
