diff-no-index: exit(1) if 'diff --quiet <repo file> <external file>' finds changes
When running 'git diff --quiet <file1> <file2>', if file1 or file2
is outside the repository, it will exit(0) even if the files differ.
It should exit(1) when they differ.
This happens because 'diff_no_index' looks at the 'found_changes'
member from 'diff_options' to determine if changes were made. This
is the wrong thing to do, since it is only set if xdiff is actually
run and it finds a change (the diff machinery will optimize out the
xdiff call when it is not necessary) and in that case HAS_CHANGED
flag needs to be taken into account.
Use diff_result_code() that knows all these details for the correct
exit value instead.
