[PATCH] Coredump when javahl SVNClient::diff() called with diff-cmd set

[[[
Prevent some coredumps when using JavaHL SVNClient::diff()

SVNClient::diff() discards output to stderr by setting stderr parameters to NULL in some calls

Some of the called code can dereference the NULL in some situations. One
such situation is if the user has set a diff-cmd value in their settings file.

The documented interface to relevant routines does not say that stderr can be set to NULL in this way.

Observed in the 1.10.3 client

* subversion/bindings/javahl/native/SVNClient.cpp

  (SVNClient::diff): Replace NULL stderr in calls to (deprecated) svn_client_diff_peg6()
   and svn_client_diff6() with svn_stream_empty objects.
