[PATCH 2/2] Simplify "external diff from attributes" logic

[PATCH 2/2] Simplify "external diff from attributes" logic

[Johannes Schindelin]

Since we already store the given diff attribute in the filespec,
we can just as well reuse that, instead of going through the whole
attributes checking process again, when checking for an external
diff program.
