Improve extdiff configuration.
In addition to the old cmd.foo, opts.foo hgrc entries, allow a more simple
alias = command [opts]... form. For example:
[extdiff]
cdiff = colordiff -uprN

-# Each custom diff commands can have two parts: a `cmd' and an `opts'
-# part.  The cmd.xxx option defines the name of an executable program

-# "hg diff" command.  The `extdiff' extension makes snapshots of only
-# needed files, so running the external diff program will actually be
-# pretty fast (at least faster than having to compare the entire tree).
