diff: add option to report whether files are binary

When generating diff output, if either side of a filepair is detected as binary, Git omits the diff content and instead prints a "Binary files differ" message.

In some cases, it can be useful to know which files were detected as binary and which were treated as text. Introduce a new --report-binary-files diff option that, when enabled, appends a line for each file indicating whether Git considered it binary or text.
