As noted by cem in r338035, coccinelle invokes diff(1) with the -B flag.
This was not previously implemented here, so one was forced to create a link
for GNU diff to /usr/local/bin/diff
Implement the -B flag and add some primitive tests for it. It is implemented
in the same fashion that -I is implemented; each chunk's lines are scanned,
and if a non-blank line is encountered then the chunk will be output.
Otherwise, it's skipped.

contrib/netbsd-tests/usr.bin/diff/t_diff.sh with the name of the script via
`basename $0`.
This was a change I forgot to port over from
^/head/gnu/usr.bin/diff/tests/Makefile@r272787.
etcupdate(8) requires that option, while GNU diff supports many more variation
of that options, their behaviour beside the simple verion implemented here are
quite inconsistent as such I do not plan to implement those.
The only special keyword supported by this implementation are: %< and %>
%= is not implemented as the documentation of GNU diff says: common lines, but
it actually when tested print the changes from the first file
Show nanoseconds in the -u/-c header line.
The present portability conditionals cannot handle the POSIX standard
st_mtim, so remove them and unconditionally use st_mtim.

naming scheme
usr.bin/diff/diff_test was renamed to usr.bin/diff/netbsd_diff_test
to avoid collisions with the renamed FreeBSD test.

.../usr.bin/diff/diff_test
Some minor adjustment needed to be done for :same as it currently
has the test script hardcoded into the test, instead of using an
idiom like $(dirname $0)

Some of the modifications from the previous summer of code has been integrated
Modification for compatibility with GNU diff output has been added
Main difference with OpenBSD:
Implement multiple GNU diff options:
* --ignore-file-name-case
* --no-ignore-file-name-case
* --normal
* --tabsize
* --strip-trailing-cr
Make diff -p compatible with GNU diff
Implement diff -l
Make diff -r compatible with GNU diff
Capsicumize diffing 2 regular files
Add a simple test suite
