feat:buffer-diff: Add syntax-aware buffer diffing with difftastic

Introduce enhanced buffer comparison with saved file using difftastic
for syntax-aware diffing, with a fallback to regular unified diff if
difftastic is unavailable. Output is displayed in separate buffers,
leveraging ansi-color for improved readability. Also includes
comprehensive integration tests covering the diff workflow, handling
cases like added, removed, and modified lines, and ensuring graceful
handling of special cases and errors.

+;;; Commentary:
+;; Integration tests covering the complete buffer diff workflow:
+;; - Comparing buffer contents with saved file version
+;; - Difftastic integration with fallback to regular diff
+;; - Output formatting and buffer display
+;; - Handling of no differences case
+;;
+;; Components integrated:
+;; - cj/executable-exists-p (program detection from system-lib)
+;; - cj/--diff-with-difftastic (difftastic execution and formatting)
+;; - cj/--diff-with-regular-diff (unified diff execution)
+;; - cj/diff-buffer-with-file (orchestration and user interaction)
+;; - File I/O (temp file creation/cleanup)
+;; - Buffer management (creating and displaying diff output)
