diff: use fctx.isbinary() to test binary The end goal is to avoid calling fctx.data() when unnecessary. For example, if diff.nobinary=1 and files are binary, the expected behavior is to print "Binary file has changed". That could avoid reading fctx.data() sometimes. This is mainly to enable an external LFS extension to skip expensive binary file loading sometimes (read: most of the time with diff.nobinary=1 and diff.text=0), without any behavior changes to mercurial (i.e. whether a file is LFS or not does not change any behavior, LFS could be 100% transparent to users).

Some Mercurial commands can produce a lot of output, and Mercurial will
attempt to use a pager to make those commands more pleasant.
To set the pager that should be used, set the application variable::
[pager]
pager = less -FRX
If no pager is set, Mercurial uses the environment variable
$PAGER. If neither pager.pager, nor $PAGER is set, a default pager
will be used, typically `less` on Unix and `more` on Windows.
.. container:: windows
On Windows, `more` is not color aware, so using it effectively disables color.
MSYS and Cygwin shells provide `less` as a pager, which can be configured to
support ANSI color codes. See :hg:`help config.color.pagermode` to configure
the color mode when invoking a pager.
You can disable the pager for certain commands by adding them to the
pager.ignore list::
[pager]
ignore = version, help, update
To ignore global commands like :hg:`version` or :hg:`help`, you have
to specify them in your user configuration file.
To control whether the pager is used at all for an individual command,
you can use --pager=<value>:
- use as needed: `auto`.
- require the pager: `yes` or `on`.
- suppress the pager: `no` or `off` (any unrecognized value
will also work).
To globally turn off all attempts to use a pager, set::
[ui]
paginate = never
which will prevent the pager from running.
