commit: ignore diff whitespace settings when doing `commit -i` (issue5839)

Previously, we respected options like `diff.ignoreblanklines` and
`diff.ignorews`.  This can cause problems when the user is attempting to
actually commit the blank line change. Specifically, the split extension can get
into an infinite loop because it detects that the working copy is not clean, but
when we get the diff we don't see the changes, so it just skips popping up the
chunk selection flow, saying there's no changes to record.

These options are primarily meant for viewing diffs; it is highly unlikely that
someone is actually intending to add extraneous whitespace and have it ignored
if they attempt to interactively commit (but *not* ignored if they
non-interactively commit).

# produces two repositories with different common and missing subsets
#
#   $ discovery-helper.sh REPO NBHEADS DEPT
#
# The Goal is to produce two repositories with some common part and some
# exclusive part on each side. Provide a source repository REPO, it will
# produce two repositories REPO-left and REPO-right.
#
# Each repository will be missing some revisions exclusive to NBHEADS of the
# repo topological heads. These heads and revisions exclusive to them (up to
# DEPTH depth) are stripped.
#
# The "left" repository will use the NBHEADS first heads (sorted by
# description). The "right" use the last NBHEADS one.
#
# To find out how many topological heads a repo has, use:
#
#   $ hg heads -t -T '{rev}\n' | wc -l
#
# Example:
#
#  The `pypy-2018-09-01` repository has 192 heads. To produce two repositories
#  with 92 common heads and ~50 exclusive heads on each side.
#
#    $ ./discovery-helper.sh pypy-2018-08-01 50 10
