range-diff: treat notes like `log`
Currently, `range-diff` shows the default notes if no notes-related
arguments are given. This is also how `log` behaves. But unlike
`range-diff`, `log` does *not* show the default notes if
`--notes=<custom>` are given. In other words, this:
git log --notes=custom
is equivalent to this:
git log --no-notes --notes=custom
While:
git range-diff --notes=custom
acts like this:
git log --notes --notes-custom
This can’t be how the user expects `range-diff` to behave given that the
man page for `range-diff` under `--[no-]notes[=<ref>]` says:
> This flag is passed to the `git log` program (see git-log(1)) that
> generates the patches.
This behavior also affects `format-patch` since it uses `range-diff` for
the cover letter. Unlike `log`, though, `format-patch` is not supposed
to show the default notes if no notes-related arguments are given.[1]
But this promise is broken when the range-diff happens to have something
to say about the changes to the default notes, since that will be shown
in the cover letter.
Remedy this by introducing `--show-notes-by-default` that `range-diff` can
use to tell the `log` subprocess what to do.
