Add a failing test which demonstrates a regression in a18d66cefb ("diff.c: free "buf" in diff_words_flush()", 2022-03-04), the regression is discussed in detail in the subsequent commit. With it running `git show --word-diff --color-moved` with SANITIZE=address would emit:

	==31191==ERROR: AddressSanitizer: attempting double-free on 0x617000021100 in thread T0:
	    #0 0x49f0a2 in free (git+0x49f0a2)
	    #1 0x9b0e4d in diff_words_flush diff.c:2153:3
	    #2 0x9aed5d in fn_out_consume diff.c:2354:3

	    [...]
	0x617000021100 is located 0 bytes inside of 768-byte region [0x617000021100,0x617000021400)
	freed by thread T0 here:
	    #0 0x49f0a2 in free (git+0x49f0a2)
	    [...(same stacktrace)...]
	previously allocated by thread T0 here:
	    #0 0x49f603 in __interceptor_realloc (git+0x49f603)
	    #1 0xde4da4 in xrealloc wrapper.c:126:8
	    #2 0x995dc5 in append_emitted_diff_symbol diff.c:794:2
	    #3 0x96c44a in emit_diff_symbol diff.c:1527:3
	    [...]

This was not caught by the test suite because we test `diff --word-diff --color-moved` only so far.

Therefore, add a test for `show`, too.
