diff: move index header generation to patch

In an upcoming patch, we will add index information to all git diffs, not
only binary diffs, so this code needs to be moved to a more appropriate
place.

Also, since this information is used for patch headers, it makes more
sense to be in the patch module, along with other patch-related metadata.
