2464456a6a contrib/difftool: use a separate config namespace for difftool commands
Some users have different mergetool and difftool settings, so teach
difftool to read config vars from the difftool.* namespace.  This allows
having distinct configurations for the diff and merge scenarios.

We don't want to force existing users to set new values for no reason
so difftool falls back to existing mergetool config variables when the
difftool equivalents are not defined.

507cfcbd81 difftool: fix documentation problems
This patch makes the difftool docs always refer to the
git-difftool script using the dashed form of the name.
Only command examples use the non-dashed form now.

5c38ea31f3 contrib: add 'git difftool' for launching common merge tools
'git difftool' is a git command that allows you to compare and edit files
between revisions using common merge tools.  'git difftool' does what
'git mergetool' does but its use is for non-merge situations such as
when preparing commits or comparing changes against the index.
It uses the same configuration variables as 'git mergetool' and
provides the same command-line interface as 'git diff'.
