test: drop Disk (Size|Free|Floor|Ceiling) fields prior comparing

The disk attributes can take some time to update on certain filesystems,
so let's strip them from inputs of both `homectl` and `userdbctl` before
comparing them to avoid unexpected fails.

Also, switch from `cmp` to `diff` to make a potential test fail a bit more
debuggable.

Fixes: #14755
