Nguyễn Thái Ngọc Duy ddf88fa616 diff: add --compact-summary
Certain information is currently shown with --summary, but when used
in combination with --stat it's a bit hard to read since info of the
same file is in two places (--stat and --summary).

On top of that, commits that add or remove files double the number of
display lines, which could be a lot if you add or remove a lot of
files.

--compact-summary embeds most of --summary back in --stat in the
little space between the file name part and the graph line, e.g. with
commit 0433d533f1:

   Documentation/merge-config.txt         |  4 +
   builtin/merge.c                        |  2 +
   ...-pull-verify-signatures.sh (new +x) | 81 ++++++++++++++
   t/t7612-merge-verify-signatures.sh     | 45 ++++++++
   4 files changed, 132 insertions(+)

It helps both condensing information and saving some text
space. What's new in diffstat is:

- A new 0644 file is shown as (new)
- A new 0755 file is shown as (new +x)
- A new symlink is shown as (new +l)
- A deleted file is shown as (gone)
- A mode change adding executable bit is shown as (mode +x)
- A mode change removing it is shown as (mode -x)

Note that --compact-summary does not contain all the information
--summary provides. Rewrite percentage is not shown but it could be
added later, like R50% or C20%.
