rS362367: diff(1): Add EXAMPLES section
Summary

Add examples for -r, -u, -N, -x, -q and -I

diff(1) has quite a few options so we could add endless examples. I added what I
thought could be more useful, but I can work out other examples if necesssary.

Test Plan
  • mandoc -Tlint clean
  • igor clean
  • aspell happy
  • man ./colrm.1 renders the page properly
