diffstat already has a -w option which can be used to achieve the same result.
Making it respond to the environment variable would change existing uses.

man diffstat

       -w number
              specify  the maximum width of the histogram.  The histogram will
              never be shorter than 10 columns, just in case the filenames get
              too large.
