diff --no-index: also imitate the exit status of diff(1)

diff sets the exit status to 0 when no changes were found, to 1
when changes were found, and 2 means error.

We imitate this to be able to use "git diff" in the test scripts.
(Actually, keeping in line with the rest of git, -1 is returned
on error, which corresponds to an exit status 255).

To find out if the diff is not empty, a member called
"found_changes" was introduced in struct diff_options, which is
set in builtin_diff() and fn_out_consume().
