[PATCH] Rework -B output.

Patch for a completely rewritten file detected by the -B flag
was shown as a pair of creation followed by deletion in earlier
versions.  This was an misguided attempt to make reviewing such
a complete rewrite easier, and unnecessarily ended up confusing
git-apply.  Instead, show the entire contents of old version
prefixed with '-', followed by the entire contents of new
version prefixed with '+'.  This gives the same easy-to-review
for human consumer while keeping it a single, regular
modification patch for machine consumption, something that even
GNU patch can grok.
