[PATCH v2] add -p: warn if only binary changes present

[Thomas Rast <trast@student.ethz.ch>]

Current 'git add -p' will say "No changes." if there are no changes to
text files, which can be confusing if there _are_ changes to binary
files.  Add some code to distinguish the two cases, and give a
different message in the latter one.
