John Ericson 9bd437d4b4 fetchpatch: Add support for an arbitrary extra prefix
We still ensure the old and new ones start, respectfully, with `a/` and
`b/`. Use with `stripLen` to ensure tha the old `a/` and `/b` are gone
if a new prefix is added.

# This function downloads and normalizes a patch/diff file.
# This is primarily useful for dynamically generated patches,
# such as GitHub's or cgit's, where the non-significant content parts
# often change with updating of git or cgit.
# stripLen acts as the -p parameter when applying a patch.
