[PATCH] Add -O<orderfile> option to diff-* brothers.

A new diffcore filter diffcore-order is introduced.  This takes
a text file each of whose line is a shell glob pattern.  Patches
that match a glob pattern on an earlier line in the file are
output before patches that match a later line, and patches that
do not match any glob pattern are output last.

A typical orderfile for git project probably should look like
this:

    README
    Makefile
    Documentation
    *.h
    *.c
