feat: add neogit support (#117)

## TODO

1. docs (vimdoc + readme) - this is a non-trivial feature
2. push luarocks version

## Problem

diffs.nvim only activates on `fugitive`, `git`, and `gitcommit`
filetypes.
Neogit uses its own custom filetypes (`NeogitStatus`,
`NeogitCommitView`,
`NeogitDiffView`) and doesn't set `b:git_dir`, so the plugin never
attaches
and repo root resolution fails for filetype detection within diff hunks.

## Solution

Two changes:

1. **`lua/diffs/init.lua`** — Add the three Neogit filetypes to the
default
`filetypes` list. The `FileType` autocmd in `plugin/diffs.lua` already
handles them correctly since the `is_fugitive_buffer` guard only applies
   to the `git` filetype.

2. **`lua/diffs/parser.lua`** — Add a CWD-based fallback in
`get_repo_root()`.
After the existing `b:diffs_repo_root` and `b:git_dir` checks, fall back
to
`vim.fn.getcwd()` via `git.get_repo_root()` (already cached). Without
this,
   the parser can't resolve filetypes for files in Neogit buffers.

Neogit's expanded diffs use standard unified diff format, so the parser
handles
them without modification.

Closes #110.
