git review: format git diffs in a friendly manner

# according to the rules in the commit message
$ git review origin/master..

What does this do?

git review is roughly the equivalent to git log -p, taking into account any Review-Options trailers specified in the commit messages.

To see it in action, run test/test-git-review and notice that the important file is listed before the others, in contrast to the output of git show.
