[PATCH v4] git-gui: shift tabstops to account for the first column of context diffs

From: Chris Idema <github_chris_idema@proton.me>

When reviewing a file before staging you want its content aligned using gui.tabsize. The prefixing of lines with +, - or space characters should not change this alignment. In gitk this is done correctly. In Git Gui not.

     -    diff.tcl: made alignment of tabs in git-gui diff consistent with gitk
     +    git-gui: shift tabstops to account for the first column of context diffs
      
     -    Tab stop width was not properly rendered in TK regardless of
     -    tab width setting. The + or minus character at start of line made
     -    tabs align incorrectly.
     +    When reviewing a file before staging you want its content aligned using
     +    gui.tabsize. The prefixing of lines with +, - or space characters should
     +    not change this alignment. In gitk this is done correctly. In Git Gui not.
