patch: support diff data loss detection and upgrade

In worst case, generating diff in upgrade mode can be two times more expensive
than generating it in git mode directly: we may have to regenerate the whole
diff again whenever a git feature is detected. Also, the first diff attempt is
completely buffered instead of being streamed. That said, even without having
profiled it yet, I am convinced we can fast-path the upgrade mode if necessary
were it to be used in regular diff commands, and not only in mq where avoiding
data loss is worth the price.

#!/bin/sh

hg init
python -c 'print "confuse str.splitlines\nembedded\rnewline"' > a
hg ci -Ama -d '1 0'
echo clean diff >> a
hg ci -mb -d '2 0'
hg diff -r0 -r1
