We need a new flag -- perhaps ``-ss'' -- to whatsnew and changes that
behaves like ``-s'' but only lists the changed files.

When working over a Git repository, ``darcs changes -s'' needs to compute
LCS for every changed file.  This is obviously overkill when all you want
to know is which files changed in a given commit.

``darcs whatsnew -ss'' could be made almost as efficient as
``changes -ss''.
