To prepare for the need to initialize and release resources for an
xdi_diff with the xdiff_outf output function, make a new function to
wrap this usage.
Old:
ecb.outf = xdiff_outf;
ecb.priv = &state;
...
xdi_diff(file_p, file_o, &xpp, &xecfg, &ecb);
New:
xdi_diff_outf(file_p, file_o, &state.xm, &xpp, &xecfg, &ecb);

This inserts a new function xdi_diff() that currently does not
do anything other than calling the underlying xdl_diff() to the
callchain of current callers of xdl_diff() function.

This makes"diff -p" hunk headers customizable via gitattributes mechanism.
It is based on Johannes's earlier patch that allowed to define a single
regexp to be used for everything.
The mechanism to arrive at the regexp that is used to define hunk header
is the same as other use of gitattributes. You assign an attribute, funcname
(because "diff -p" typically uses the name of the function the patch is about
as the hunk header), a simple string value. This can be one of the names of
built-in pattern (currently, "java" is defined) or a custom pattern name, to
be looked up from the configuration file.
(in .gitattributes)
*.java funcname=java
*.perl funcname=perl
(in .git/config)
[funcname]
java = ... # ugly and complicated regexp to override the built-in one.
perl = ... # another ugly and complicated regexp to define a new one.

We already have two instances where we want to determine if a buffer
contains binary data as opposed to text.

read_file() was a useful function if you want to work with the xdiff stuff,
so it was renamed and put into a more central place.

This refactors the line-by-line callback mechanism used in
combine-diff so that other programs can reuse it more easily.
