extdiff: add a --patch argument for diffing changeset deltas

One of the things I missed the most when transitioning from versioned MQ to
evolve was the loss of being able to check that rebase conflicts were properly
resolved by:

  $ hg ci --mq -m "before"
  $ hg rebase -s qbase -d tip
  $ hg bcompare --mq

The old csets stay in the tree with evolve, but a straight diff includes all of
the other changes that were pulled in, obscuring the code that was rebased.
Diffing deltas can be confusing, but unless radical changes were made during the
resolve, it is very clear when individual hunks are added, dropped or modified.
Unlike the MQ technique, this can only compare a single pair of csets/patches at
a time.  Like the MQ method, this also highlights changes in the commit comment
and other metadata.

I originally tried monkey patching from the evolve extension, but that is too
complicated given that it depends on the order the two different extensions are
loaded.  This functionality is also useful when comparing grafts however, so
implementing it in the core is more than just convenience.

The --change argument doesn't make much sense for this, but it isn't harmful so
I didn't bother blocking it.  The -I/-X options are ignored because of a
limitation of cmdutil.export().  We'll fix that next.

test command parsing and dispatch

  $ hg init a
  $ cd a

Redundant options used to crash (issue436):
  $ hg -v log -v
  $ hg -v log -v x

  $ echo a > a
  $ hg ci -Ama
  adding a

Missing arg:

  $ hg cat
  hg cat: invalid arguments
  hg cat [OPTION]... FILE...
  
  output the current or given revision of files
  
  options ([+] can be repeated):
  
   -o --output FORMAT       print output to file with formatted name
   -r --rev REV             print the given revision
      --decode              apply any matching decode filter
   -I --include PATTERN [+] include names matching the given patterns
   -X --exclude PATTERN [+] exclude names matching the given patterns
  
  (use "hg cat -h" to show more help)
