As noted by cem in r338035, coccinelle invokes diff(1) with the -B flag.
This was not previously implemented here, so one was forced to create a link
for GNU diff to /usr/local/bin/diff

Implement the -B flag and add some primitive tests for it. It is implemented
in the same fashion that -I is implemented; each chunk's lines are scanned,
and if a non-blank line is encountered then the chunk will be output.
Otherwise, it's skipped.
