[PATCHv3 2/7] diff_opt: track whether flags have been set explicitly

From
Michael J Gruber <git@drmicha.warpmail.net>

Message-ID
<88fb8906050411d0fe8b56cea160a4bfa1abb699.1368197380.git.git@drmicha.warpmail.net>

From: Junio C Hamano <gitster@pobox.com>

The diff_opt infrastructure sets flags based on defaults and command line options. Currently, it is impossible to detect whether a flag has been set as a default or on explicit request.

Amend the structure so that this detection is possible:
 * There is an extra "opt->touched_flags" that keeps track of all
   the fields that have been touched by DIFF_OPT_SET and
   DIFF_OPT_CLR;
 * You may continue setting the default values to the flags, like
   commands in the "log" family do in cmd_log_init_defaults(), but
   after you finished setting the defaults, you clear the
   touched_flags field;
 * And then you let the usual callchain call diff_opt_parse(),
   allowing the opt->flags be set or unset, while keeping track of
   which bits the user touched;
 * There is an optional callback "opt->set_default" that is called
   at the very beginning to lets you inspect touched_flags and
   update opt->flags appropriately, before the remainder of the
   diffcore machinery is set up, taking the opt->flags value into
   account.
