This change makes the DiffNotifyCallback always use an "unowned"
*git.Diff that does _not_ run the finalizer. Since the underlying
git_diff object is still owned by libgit2, we shouldn't be calling
Diff.Free() on it, even by accident, since that would cause a whole lot
of undefined behavior.
Now instead of storing a reference to a *git.Diff in the intermediate
state while the diff operation is being done, create a brand new
*git.Diff for every callback invocation, and only create a fully-owned
*git.Diff when the diff operation is done and the ownership is
transfered to Go.
It is not Go idiomatic to put Get into the getter's name.

While Go will assign the correct type to a const block when it
auto-creates the values, assigning makes the const be typeless and will
only gain it in each particular use.
Make each constant in the blocks have an assigned type.
When marshalling diff callback data to Go structs, any `char*` need to
be pre-emptively copied onto Go's heap as they're invalidated as soon as
our callback function returns. This patch adds this extra copy before
sending the value to the channel, which fixes a bug wherein
`DiffLine.Content`, `DiffFile.Path` and `DiffHunk.Header` would
previously return garbage data.
It is possible that the typed enums from libgit2 should be exported as
distinct types rather than numeric constants (e.g, `git_delta_t` and
`git_line_t` should be typed), but this has not been done in this patch.
This commit adds barebones capacity to generate diffs from two trees and
to emit those as git-style diffs (via `Patch.String`), or to enumerate
the files/hunks/lines in the diff to emit the data yourself.
The walk functions have been implemented in the same manner as the Odb
walking methods.
Note that not all of the functionality is implemented for either the
`git_diff_*` nor the `git_patch_*` functions, and there are unexposed
constants which would likely be useful to add.
