git-diff.txt: document return code of `--no-index`
Within diff_no_index(), we have the following:
revs->diffopt.flags.exit_with_status = 1;
...
/*
* The return code for --no-index imitates diff(1):
* 0 = no changes, 1 = changes, else error
*/
return diff_result_code(&revs->diffopt, 0);
Which means when `git diff` is run in `--no-index` mode, `--exit-code`
is implied. However, the documentation for this is missing in
git-diff.txt.
Add a note about how `--exit-code` is implied in the `--no-index`
documentation to cover this documentation blindspot.
