In ef283b3699 ("apply: make parse_git_diff_header public", 2019-07-11)
the 'parse_git_diff_header' function was made public and useable by
callers outside of apply.c.
However it was missed that its (then) only caller, 'find_header' did
some error handling, and completing 'struct patch' appropriately.
range-diff then started using this function, and tried to handle this
appropriately itself, but fell short in some cases. This in turn
would lead to range-diff segfaulting when there are mode-only changes
in a range.
Move the error handling and completing of the struct into the
'parse_git_diff_header' function, so other callers can take advantage
of it. This fixes the segfault in 'git range-diff'.

Currently range-diff keeps the diff header of the inner diff
intact (apart from stripping lines starting with index). This diff
header is somewhat useful, especially when files get different
names in different ranges.
However there is no real need to keep the whole diff header for that.
The main reason we currently do that is probably because it is easy to
do.
Introduce a new range diff hunk header, that's enclosed by "##",
similar to how line numbers in diff hunks are enclosed by "@@", and
give human readable information of what exactly happened to the file,
including the file name.
This improves the readability of the range-diff by giving more concise
information to the users. For example if a file was renamed in one
iteration, but not in another, the diff of the headers would be quite
noisy. However the diff of a single line is concise and should be
easier to understand.
Additionally, this allows us to add these range diff section headers to
the outer diffs hunk headers using a custom userdiff pattern, which
should help making the range-diff more readable.

These are essentially lifted from https://github.com/trast/tbdiff, with
light touch-ups to account for the command now being named `git
range-diff`.
Apart from renaming `tbdiff` to `range-diff`, only one test case needed
to be adjusted: 11 - 'changed message'.
The underlying reason it had to be adjusted is that diff generation is
sometimes ambiguous. In this case, a comment line and an empty line are
added, but it is ambiguous whether they were added after the existing
empty line, or whether an empty line and the comment line are added
*before* the existing empty line. And apparently xdiff picks a different
option here than Python's difflib.
