clang-format: Add an option to git-clang-format to diff between to commits
Summary:
When building pre-upload hooks using git-clang-format, it is useful to limit the scope to a diff of two commits (instead of from a commit against the working tree) to allow for less false positives in dependent commits.
This change adds the option of specifying two git commits to git-clang-format when using the `--diff` flag, which uses a different strategy to diff (using `git-diff-tree` instead of `git-diff-index`), and runs clang-format against the second commit instead of the working directory.
There is a slight backwards-incompatibility introduced with this change: if a filename matches a branch name or other commit-ish, then `git clang-format <commit> <file>` will no longer work as expected; use `git clang-format <commit> -- <file>` instead.
