git diff -I<regex> does not work with empty +/- lines

[Johannes Altmanninger <aclopte@gmail.com>]

diff -I<regex> suppresses hunks where all +/- lines match <regex>.
it is useful to filter away boilerplate changes.

Unfortunately, it doesn't help if a hunk has a blank line, because the one
obvious way to filter out blank lines (^$) match *every* line, surprisingly.
This is because for a line "01\n"
we have a zero-width match here ^$ (offset 3).

IOW, while we succesfully ignore deleted blank lines

	printf '\n' | git diff --no-index - /dev/null -I'^$'
	diff --git a/- b/-
	deleted file mode 100644

we also ignore non-blank lines (very surprising)

	printf 'non-blank-line\n' | git diff --no-index - /dev/null -I'^$'
	diff --git a/- b/-
	deleted file mode 100644

unless they don't end in a newline (special case)

	printf 'line without ending newline' | git diff --no-index - /dev/null -I'^$'
	diff --git a/- b/-
	deleted file mode 100644
	--- a/-
	+++ /dev/null
	@@ -1 +0,0 @@
	-line without ending newline
	\ No newline at end of file

This patch fixes the second example. Is this the right direction?
Do we want to honor core.eol, so we preserve the \r when we have Unix endings?

In any case -I<regex> won't be able to discern between "line\n" and "line"
but that's not important to me.
