[PATCH] diff: suppress --name-only paths where all hunks are ignored

[Johannes Altmanninger <aclopte@gmail.com>]

Diff options -w and the new -I<regex> can be used to suppress some hunks. Honor
these ignores in combination with --name-only, --name-stat, and --raw,
to not output files where all hunks are ignored.

Commit f245194f9a made "git diff -w --exit-code" exit with zero if all
changed hunks are whitespace. This uses the diff_from_contents bit.
Set that also when given -I<regex>, for consistent exit codes.

The diff_from_contents bit means that we have to look at content
changes to know if a path has changed - modulo ignored hunks.  Teach
diff.c::flush_one_pair() to do so.  In the caller, reset the found_changes bit
after each file pair, so we can test each file separately for content changes.
