This is not exactly sanitary for "stash -p", whose DIFF element is
defined like so:

	'stash' => {
		DIFF => 'diff-index -p HEAD',

and you will end up appending an option after a non-option argument,

It may happen to be accepted by the command line parser which is
overly lax, but we would want to tighten it in the longer term.

As a band-aid, we could do something like the attached patch, but
for the longer term, we might need to rethink the way the tweaking
of the command line is done by $patch_mode_revision.

Subject: add -i: add extra options at the right place in "diff" command line

Appending "--diff-algorithm=histogram" at the end of canned command
line for various modes of "diff" is correct for most of them but not
for "stash" that has a non-option already wired in, like so:

	'stash' => {
		DIFF => 'diff-index -p HEAD',

Appending an extra option after non-option may happen to work due to
overly lax command line parser, but that is not something we should
rely on.  Instead, splice in the extra argument immediately after a
'-p' option, which is an option to ask for textual diff output that
has to be in all variants.
