color-words: Support diff.wordregex config option
When diff is invoked with --color-words (w/o =regex), use the regular
expression the user has configured as diff.wordregex.
diff drivers configured via attributes take precedence over the
diff.wordregex-words setting. If the user wants to change them, they have
their own configuration variables.
