diff: do not short-cut CHECK_SIZE_ONLY check in diff_populate_filespec()jc/diff-populate-filespec-size-only-fix
Callers of diff_populate_filespec() can choose to ask only for the size of the blob without grabbing the blob data, and the function, after running lstat() when the filespec points at a working tree file, returns by copying the value in size field of the stat structure into the size field of the filespec when this is the case. However, this short-cut cannot be taken if the contents from the path needs to go through convert_to_git(), whose resulting real blob data may be different from what is in the working tree file. As "git diff --quiet" compares the .size fields of filespec structures to skip content comparison, this bug manifests as a false "there are differences" for a file that needs eol conversion, for example.
