    This introduces a new ?files=<id>[,<id>,...] query argument for the
    diff viewer URL that allows for specifying specific filediff IDs to
    show out of the list of files in that diff. This can be used to
    construct versions of the diff viewer that are intended for one team
    versus another, or that exclude certain large files.

    The new option replaces the old ?file=<id>, which wasn't particularly
    functional and may not have worked correctly in the past. Some rough
    support for the old query argument remains.

    Unit tests pass.

    Manually tested different combinations of IDs on some local diffs. Only
    the requested files appeared, but were in the standard sort order.
