Added option to view diffs file-by-file

Phil Hughes requested to merge ph/222790/diffSingleFileView into master

What does this MR do?

This was originally a community contribution, see !22427 (closed)

This adds an option for users to view diffs file-by-file, instead of in one big list of files. This can be helpful for some teams, but especially useful if teams often review large merge requests where the performance of the page can suffer.

The option to enable this feature is inside of the user preferences and behind a feature flag (named view_diffs_file_by_file) for now.
