diff: unify external diff and funcname parsing code
Both sets of code assume that one specifies a diff profile as a gitattribute via the "diff=foo" attribute. They then pull information about that profile from the config as diff.foo.*. The code for each is currently completely separate from the other, which has several disadvantages: - there is duplication as we maintain code to create and search the separate lists of external drivers and funcname patterns - it is difficult to add new profile options, since it is unclear where they should go - the code is difficult to follow, as we rely on the "check if this file is binary" code to find the funcname pattern as a side effect. This is the first step in refactoring the binary-checking code. This patch factors out these diff profiles into "userdiff" drivers. A file with "diff=foo" uses the "foo" driver, which is specified by a single struct. Note that one major difference between the two pieces of code is that the funcname patterns are always loaded, whereas external drivers are loaded only for the "git diff" porcelain; the new code takes care to retain that situation.
