diff: do not short-cut CHECK_SIZE_ONLY check in diff_populate_filespec()
Callers of diff_populate_filespec() can choose to ask only for the
size of the blob without grabbing the blob data, and the function,
after running lstat() when the filespec points at a working tree
file, returns by copying the value in size field of the stat
structure into the size field of the filespec when this is the case.
However, this short-cut cannot be taken if the contents from the
path needs to go through convert_to_git(), whose resulting real blob
data may be different from what is in the working tree file.
As "git diff --quiet" compares the .size fields of filespec
structures to skip content comparison, this bug manifests as a
false "there are differences" for a file that needs eol conversion,
for example.
