difftool --no-index: error out on --dir-diff (and don't crash)
In `--no-index` mode, we now no longer require a worktree nor a
repository. But some code paths in `difftool` expect those to be
present.
The most notable such code path is the `--dir-diff` one: we use the
existing checkout machinery to copy the files, and that machinery looks
up replacement refs, looks at alternate ODBs, wants to use the worktree
path, etc.
Rather than running into segmentation faults, let's die with an
informative error message.
