narrow: intersect provided matcher with narrowmatcher in `hg diff`

This provides significant speedups when running diff, and no change in behavior
that I'm aware of (or that the tests found). I tested with a repo that I started
using narrow in after it was created and attempted to run `hg diff -c .` and
similar commands in it on a commit that had files not in the narrowspec.

Timing numbers below, using a similar setup as my previous commits.
before=9db85644, m-u is mozilla-unified at eb39298e432d (flatmanifest) and
0553b7f29eaf (treemanifest). l-d-r is a repo simulating a situation I've
encountered where there's one directory with 30k+ subdirectories. N means
narrow, T means treemanifest. The narrowspec is pretty small when in use, and
importantly the narrowspec is applied *after* doing the initial checkout
(without narrowing), so all of these files exist in the filesystem, which is not
normally the case if someone has been using narrow for the entire life of the
clone.

Anything less than a 5% difference in performance is most likely noise.

If you just want a checklist to follow, you can go straight to

https://www.mercurial-scm.org/wiki/ContributingChanges#Submission_checklist

If you can't run the entire testsuite for some reason (it can be
difficult on Windows), please at least run `contrib/check-code.py` on
any files you've modified and run `python contrib/check-commit` on any
commits you've made (for example, `python contrib/check-commit
273ce12ad8f1` will report some style violations on a very old commit).
