This adds a somewhat discoverable frontend for common uses of the
patch command.
Here are some frequently used commands
# apply selected changes
git apply
# revert selected changes
git apply -R
# stage selected changes
git apply --cached
# unstage selected changes
git apply --cached -R
# apply selected changes and stage them
git apply --index
For everyday use that's a lot of typing so I recommend adding mappings.
One of the features I miss most from Magit/Fugitive/Tig is to
apply/revert/stage/unstage individual hunks or even exactly the
selected line(s). This provides a much more convenient way of
splitting changes than "git add/restore -p".
Implement a "patch" command that applies the selected lines within
a diff by piping them to the "patch" program.
It can also feed other programs like "git apply" (see the next commit).

Interestingly, :patch is defined outside the "patch" module. This is
to make it readily available for interactive use.
Putting it into the module does not save any work.
I tentatively added a patch module anyway so we can explicitly declare
this dependency.. although there is the argument that this is not
really needed?
This commit adds `diff_add_char`, `diff_mod_char`, `diff_del_char` and `diff_top_char` as `str` options, with typical
defaults.
This commit also replaces the hard coded +, _, ≃, etc. hardcoded characters in `git update-diff` to use the options from
above.

An assert fails from time to time after reloading fifo buffers due
to being scrolled past the last line of the buffer. A repro case was
not found but this should fix the underlying issue.
The cached WordDB/Highlighters/FifoReader are not relevant and are
better fully rebuilt than updated. This speeds up rebuilding the
WordDB of big fifo buffers such as a `git log`.
Previously, `:doc mapping` hid everything from the beginning of the "expansions"
link up to the "keys" link in the next section (the next occurring comma). Now
the end of the "Mapping commands" section and the beginning of the "Mapping
keys" section are properly visible inside Kakoune.
