context: also accept diff option directly

For now we accept both diff option and dictionary. This will let us upgrade
internal users gradually before we drop the old API at the end of this series.

# extdiff will set the parent and child to a single file if there is
# only one change. If there are multiple changes, directories will be
# set. diff(1) does not cope particularly with directories; instead we
# do the recursion ourselves and diff each file individually.

	# conflicts during the diff. We circumvent this behavior by
	# diffing against the repository root to produce plumbable
	# output. This is antisocial.
