It's typical to find Markdown documentation alongside source code, and
having better context for documentation changes is useful; see also
commit 69f9c87d4 (userdiff: add support for Fountain documents,
2015-07-21).
The pattern is based on the CommonMark specification 0.29, section 4.2
<https://spec.commonmark.org/> but doesn't match empty headings, as
seeing them in a hunk header is unlikely to be useful.
Only ATX headings are supported, as detecting setext headings would
require printing the line before a pattern matches, or matching a
multiline pattern. The word-diff pattern is the same as the pattern for
HTML, because many Markdown parsers accept inline HTML.
