This adds yet another vimdiff/gvimdiff variant and presents conflicts as a two-way diff between 'LOCAL' and 'REMOTE'. 'MERGED' is not opened which deviates from the norm so usage text is echoed as a Vim message on startup that instructs the user with how to proceed and how to abort. Vimdiff is well-suited to two-way diffs so this is an option for a more simple, more streamlined conflict resolution. For example: it is difficult to communicate differences across more than two files using only syntax highlighting; default vimdiff commands to get and put changes between buffers do not need the user to manually specify a source or destination buffer when only using two buffers. Like other merge tools that directly compare 'LOCAL' with 'REMOTE', this tool will benefit when paired with the new `mergetool.hideResolved` setting.
