[GSoC PATCH v3 0/2] diff: handle ANSI escape codes in prefix when calculating diffstat width

This patch aims to fix a bug where the calculation of the diffstat width incorrectly uses the strlen() of line_prefix instead of its actual display width.

This patch addresses the NEEDSWORK item added by ce8529b2 (diff: leave NEEDWORK notes in show_stats() function, 2022-10-21).

Thanks Junio for you guidance.

V3 DIFF:
* Changed references from "UTF-8 char" to "ANSI escape codes"
* Removed mistakenly added empty file
* Slightly improved the test script comment

    +    diff: handle ANSI escape codes in prefix when calculating diffstat width
     
         The diffstat width is calculated by taking the terminal width and
         incorrectly subtracting the `strlen()` of `line_prefix`, instead of the
    -    actual display width of `line_prefix`, which may contain UTF-8
    -    characters (e.g., ANSI-colored strings in `log --graph --stat`).
    +    actual display width of `line_prefix`, which may contain ANSI escape
    +    codes (e.g., ANSI-colored strings in `log --graph --stat`).
     
         Utilize the display width instead, obtained via `utf8_strnwidth()` with
         the flag `skip_ansi`.

         Add test checking the calculation of the diffstat display width when the
         `line_prefix`, which is text that goes before the diffstat, contains
    -    UTF-8 characters.
    +    ANSI escape codes.
     
         This situation happens, for example, when `git log --stat --graph` is
         executed:
         * `--stat` will create a diffstat for each commit
         * `--graph` will stuff `line_prefix` with the graph portion of the log,
    -      which contains UTF-8 characters (ANSI escape codes to color the text)
    +      which contains ANSI escape codes to color the text
