diff-lib: ignore paths that are outside $cwd if --relative asked
For diff family commands, we can tell them to exclude changes outside
of some directories if --relative is requested.
In diff_unmerge(), NULL will be returned if the requested path is
outside of the interesting directories, thus we'll run into NULL
pointer dereference in run_diff_files when trying to dereference
its return value.
Checking for return value of diff_unmerge before dereferencing
is not sufficient, though. Since, diff engine will try to work on such
pathspec later.
Let's not run diff on those unintesting entries, instead.
As a side effect, by skipping like that, we can save some CPU cycles.
