Subject: [PATCH] Windows: a test_cmp that is agnostic to random LF <> CRLF
 conversions

In a number of tests, output that was produced by a shell script is
compared to expected output using test_cmp. Unfortunately, the MSYS bash--
when invoked via git, such as in hooks--converts LF to CRLF on output
(as produced by echo and printf), which leads to many false positives.

Implements a diff tool that undoes the converted CRLF. To avoid that
sub-processes are spawned (which is very slow on Windows), the tool is
implemented as a shell function. Diff is invoked as usual only when a
difference is detected by the shell code.
