[PATCH v2] diff-no-index: exit(1) if 'diff --quiet <repo file> <external file>' finds changes

[Tim Henigan]

When running 'git diff --quiet <file1> <file2>', if file1 or file2
is outside the repository, it will exit(0) even if the files differ.
It should exit(1) when they differ.

Changes in v2:
  - Implemented the fix in diff-no-index.c as suggested by Junio
    Hamano.  The previous version affected the performance of all
    diff commands that used the '--quiet' option by forcing the
    code through the expensive (and in this case unneccesary)
    'diff_flush_patch' code path.
  - Updated the test to use 'test_expect_code' as suggested by
    Jeff King.
