skip_stat_unmatch flag is added in fb13227 (git-diff: squelch "empty"
diffs - 2007-08-03) to ignore empty diffs caused by stat-only
dirtiness. In some diff case, stat is not involved at all. While
the code is written in a way that no expensive I/O is done, we still
need to move all file pairs from the old queue to the new queue in
diffcore_skip_stat_unmatch().

Only enable it when worktree is involved: "diff" and "diff <rev>".
This should help track down how skip_stat_unmatch is actually used
when bugs occur.

 This replaces 'diff: turn off skip_stat_unmatch on "diff --cached"'
 The previous patch obviously leaves skip_stat_unmatch on in "diff
 <rev> <rev>" and maybe other cases.
