Nguyễn Thái Ngọc Duy 6bf3b81348 diff --stat: mark any file larger than core.bigfilethreshold binary ...

Too large files may lead to failure to allocate memory. If it happens
here, it could impact quite a few commands that involve
diff. Moreover, too large files are inefficient to compare anyway (and
most likely non-text), so mark them binary and skip looking at their
content.
