Trying to clean up my old RFCs, so here's a mini-series that
1) adds a test for "status -v" (the diff between HEAD and index) and
2) implements "status -v -v" (additional diff between index and worktree).

The idea is that in a case where "commit -v" would list fils with unstaged changes one would get the diff for these changes with '-v -v' easily.

2/2 also sets the diff prefixes (a/,b/ etc.) for both diffs in the '-v -v' case to a really verbose version to avoid any confusion between the two types of diffs. We may want to do that for '-v' already, although that would be a change in behavior.

The wording for the new prefixes is chosen after the status hints, although they are not localised.
