diff: vary default prefix depending on what are compared
With a new configuration "diff.mnemonicprefix", "git diff" shows the
differences between various combinations of preimage and postimage trees
with prefixes different from the standard "a/" and "b/". Hopefully this
will make the distinction stand out for some people.
"git diff" compares the (i)ndex and the (w)ork tree;
"git diff HEAD" compares a (c)ommit and the (w)ork tree;
"git diff --cached" compares a (c)ommit and the (i)ndex;
"git-diff HEAD:file1 file2" compares an (o)bject and a (w)ork tree entity;
"git diff --no-index a b" compares two non-git things (1) and (2).
Because these mnemonics now have meanings, they are swapped when reverse
diff is in effect and this feature is enabled.
