[PATCH 2/3] difftool: Check all return codes from compare()

[David Aguilar <davvid@gmail.com>]

Handle the case where compare() is unable to read its inputs.
Emit a warning so that the user knows that something went wrong.

We may later want to restructure the code so that we can inhibit
tempdir cleanup when this condition is reached.
