diff: fix incorrectly displaying files as duplicates

When diff hits certain access errors, function diffreg() shows the error
message, and then returns to the calling function, which calls
print_status() with the return value.

However, in these cases, the return value isn't changed from the initial
default value of D_SAME.

Normally, print_status() with a value of D_SAME does nothing, so this
works out ok, however, if the "-s" flag is set, a message is displayed
showing identicality:

case D_SAME:
if (sflag)
printf("Files %s%s and %s%s are identical\n", path1, entry, path2, entry);
break;

This then produces such results as:

% diff -s /COPYRIGHT /var/run/rpcbind.sock
diff: /var/run/rpcbind.sock: Operation not supported
Files /COPYRIGHT and /var/run/rpcbind.sock are identical

% diff -s /COPYRIGHT /etc/master.passwd
diff: /etc/master.passwd: Permission denied
Files /COPYRIGHT and /etc/master.passwd are identical

Create a D_ERROR status which is returned in such cases, and
print_status() then deals with that status seperately from D_SAME

diff(1): reject conflicting formatting options

This matches GNU diff(1) behavior and, more importantly, eliminates any
source of confusion if multiple formatting options are specified.

Note that the committed diff differs slightly from the submitted: I've
modified it so that we initialize diff_format to something that isn't an
accepted format option so that we can also reject --normal -c and -c
--normal, which would've otherwise been accepted because the default was
--normal. After option parsing we default it to D_NORMAL if it's still
unset.

diff(1): Implement -B/--ignore-blank-lines

As noted by cem in r338035, coccinelle invokes diff(1) with the -B flag.
This was not previously implemented here, so one was forced to create a link
for GNU diff to /usr/local/bin/diff

Implement the -B flag and add some primitive tests for it. It is implemented
in the same fashion that -I is implemented; each chunk's lines are scanned,
and if a non-blank line is encountered then the chunk will be output.
Otherwise, it's skipped.

Implement a basic --changed-group-format

etcupdate(8) requires that option, while GNU diff supports many more variation
of that options, their behaviour beside the simple verion implemented here are
quite inconsistent as such I do not plan to implement those.

The only special keyword supported by this implementation are: %< and %>
%= is not implemented as the documentation of GNU diff says: common lines, but
it actually when tested print the changes from the first file

Import diff from OpenBSD and remove GNU diff

Some of the modifications from the previous summer of code has been integrated
Modification for compatibility with GNU diff output has been added

Main difference with OpenBSD:
Implement multiple GNU diff options:
* --ignore-file-name-case
* --no-ignore-file-name-case
* --normal
* --tabsize
* --strip-trailing-cr
Make diff -p compatible with GNU diff
Implement diff -l
Make diff -r compatible with GNU diff

Capsicumize diffing 2 regular files
Add a simple test suite
