Add option to ignore line endings and/or whitespace in a diff (BB-3879)

    Description

      I just submitted a smallish change. The website shows it as a humongous change because it considers every line as edited.

      Presumably this must be due to line endings in some way.

      I propose that the website diff ignores differing line endings and just normalises them. Otherwise the diff is just not useful.

      Here is an example.
