[PATCH v3] diffcore-break: use a goto instead of a redundant if statement

The condition "if (q->nr <= j)" checks whether the loop exited normally or via a break statement. This check can be avoided by replacing the jump to the end of the loop with a jump to the end of the function.

With the break replaced by a goto, the two diff_q calls then can be replaced with a single diff_q call outside of the outer if statement.
