built-in add -i: re-implement the `diff` command

It is not only laziness that we simply spawn `git diff -p --cached` here: this command needs to use the pager, and the pager needs to exit when the diff is done. Currently we do not have any way to make that happen if we run the diff in-process. So let's just spawn.
