git-diff.txt: backtick quote command text

Denton-L · gitster · commit a8fa6a08f4ff · 2020-09-17T09:38:47.000-07:00
The modern way to quote commands in the documentation is to use
backticks instead of double-quotes as this renders the text with the
code style. Convert double-quoted command text to backtick-quoted
commands. While we're at it, quote one instance of `^@`.
