maint: Tell git that *.py files should use python diff hunks
Git's default hunk pattern recognizer favors the C language, but it also includes several built-in diff styles that give saner results in other languages. In particular, telling git to treat all .py files as python changes the beginning of diff hunks as follows: | --- a/python/qemu/machine.py | +++ b/python/qemu/machine.py | -@@ -337,12 +337,12 @@ class QEMUMachine: | +@@ -337,12 +337,12 @@ def _post_shutdown(self) -> None: | self._qmp.close() which makes it much easier to tell what function a patch is touching, rather than a non-descript listing of what class contains the changes. Sadly, our python files that don't use .py suffix (such as numerous iotests) do not benefit from this glob.
