[PATCH 05/19] tree-diff: show_tree() is not needed

We don't need special code for showing added/removed subtree, because we can do the same via diff_tree_sha1, just passing NULL for absent tree.

And compared to show_tree(), which was calling show_entry() for every tree entry, that would lead to the same show_entry() callings:

    show_tree(t):
        for e in t.entries:
            show_entry(e)
    diff_tree_sha1(NULL, new):  /* the same applies to (old, NULL) */
        diff_tree(t1=NULL, t2)
            ...
            if (!t1->size)
                show_entry(t2)
            ...
and possible overhead is negligible, since after the patch, timing for
    `git log --raw --no-abbrev --no-renames`
for navy.git and `linux.git v3.10..v3.11` is practically the same.

So let's say goodbye to show_tree() - it removes some code, but also, and what is important, consolidates more code for showing/recursing into trees into one place.
