refactor(highlight): unified per-line extmark builder (#144)
## Problem

`highlight_hunk` applied DiffsClear extmarks across 5 scattered sites
with
ad-hoc column arithmetic. This fragmentation produced the 1-column
DiffsClear
gap on email-quoted body context lines (#142 issue 1). A redundant
`highlight_hunk_vim_syntax` function duplicated the inline vim syntax
path,
and the deferred pass in init.lua double-called it, creating duplicate
scratch
buffers and extmarks.

## Solution

Reorganize `highlight_hunk` into two clean phases:

- **Phase 1** — multi-line syntax computation (treesitter, vim syntax,
diff
grammar, header context text). Sets syntax extmarks only, no DiffsClear.
- **Phase 2** — per-line chrome (DiffsClear, backgrounds, gutter,
overlays,
  intra-line). All non-syntax extmarks consolidated in one pass.

Hoist `new_code` to function scope (needed by `highlight_text` outside
the
`use_ts` block). Hoist `at_raw_line` so Phase 1d and Phase 2b share one
`nvim_buf_get_lines` call.

Delete `highlight_hunk_vim_syntax` (redundant with inline path). Remove
the
double-call from the deferred pass in init.lua.

Extend body prefix DiffsClear `end_col` from `qw` to `pw + qw`, fixing
the
1-column gap where native treesitter background bled through on context
lines
in email-quoted diffs (#142 issue 1).

### Email-quoted diff support

The parser now strips `> ` (and `>> `, etc.) email quote prefixes before
pattern matching, enabling syntax highlighting for diffs embedded in
email
replies and `git-send-email` / sourcehut-style patch review threads.
Each hunk stores `quote_width` so the highlight pipeline can apply
`DiffsClear` at the correct column offsets to suppress native treesitter
on quoted regions.

Closes #141
