Enable the sparse index within the 'git diff' command. Its implementation
already safely integrates with the sparse index because it shares code with
the 'git status' and 'git checkout' commands that were already integrated.
The most interesting thing to do is to add tests that verify that 'git diff'
behaves correctly when the sparse index is enabled. These cases are:
1. The index is not expanded for 'diff' and 'diff --staged'
2. 'diff' and 'diff --staged' behave the same in full checkout, sparse
checkout, and sparse index repositories in the following partially-staged
scenarios (i.e. the index, HEAD, and working directory differ at a given
path):
1. Path is within sparse-checkout cone
2. Path is outside sparse-checkout cone
3. A merge conflict exists for paths outside sparse-checkout cone
The `p2000` tests demonstrate a ~30% execution time reduction for 'git
diff' and a ~75% execution time reduction for 'git diff --staged' using a
sparse index:
