Subject: Set git diff driver for C source code files.

Git can be told to apply language-specific rules when generating diffs.
Enable this for C source code files (*.c and *.h) so that function names
are printed right. Specifically, doing so prevents "git diff" from
mistakenly considering unindented goto labels as function names.

This has the same effect as adding

    [diff "default"]
        xfuncname = "^[[:alpha:]$_].*[^:]$"

to your git config file.

e.g get

    @@ -10,7 +10,7 @@ int main(void)

instead of

    @@ -10,7 +10,7 @@ again:

This makes use of the gitattributes(5) infrastructure.
