This adds a builtin difftool that still falls back to the legacy Perl version, which has been renamed to `legacy-difftool`.
The idea is that the new, experimental, builtin difftool immediately hands off to the legacy difftool for now, unless the config variable difftool.useBuiltin is set to true.
This feature flag will be used in the upcoming Git for Windows v2.11.0 release, to allow early testers to opt-in to use the builtin difftool and flesh out any bugs.
