Use git_diff_get_stats in example/diff + refactor
This takes the `--stat` and related example options in the example diff.c program and converts them to use the `git_diff_get_stats` API which nicely formats stats for you. I went to add bar-graph scaling to the stats formatter and noticed that the `git_diff_stats` structure was holding on to all of the `git_patch` objects. Unfortunately, each of these objects keeps the full text of the diff in memory, so this is very expensive. I ended up modifying `git_diff_stats` to keep just the data that it needs to keep and allowed it to release the patches. Then, I added width scaling to the output on top of that. In making the diff example program match 'git diff' output, I ended up removing an newline from the sumamry output which I then had to compensate for in the email formatting to match the expectations. Lastly, I went through and refactored the tests to use a couple of helper functions and reduce the overall amount of code there.
