In 250f79930d (diff.c: split emit_line() from the first char and the rest of the line, 2009-09-14) we introduced the local variable 'nofirst' that indicates if we have no first sign character. With the given implementation we had to use an extra variable unlike reusing 'first' because the lines first character could be '\0'. Change the meaning of the 'first' argument to not mean the first character of the line, but rather just containing the sign that is prepended to the line. Refactor emit_line to not include the lines first character, but pass the complete line as well as a '\0' sign, which now serves as an indication not to print a sign. With this patch other callers hard code the sign (which are '+', '-', ' ' and '\\') such that we do not run into unexpectedly emitting an error-nous '\0'. The audit of the caller revealed that the sign cannot be '\n' or '\r', so remove that condition for trailing newline or carriage return in the sign; the else part of the condition handles the len==0 perfectly, so we can drop the if/else construct.
