gitk: remove code targeting git <= 1.7.2

gitk has a few code fragments that are used only for git versions <= 1.7.2 that do not support submodules, notes, word differences, or textconv filters. We just set the minimum git version higher than 1.7.2 so these code fragments have no effect. Delete them. Helped-by: Johannes Sixt <j6t@kdbg.org> Signed-off-by: Mark Levedahl <mlevedahl@gmail.com>
