Fixes #3839
cc: @hiddeco @makkes @somtochiama
WIP. Please take a look. For the time being I have added a verbose flag for the functionallity to keep it backward compatible in terms of testing, but it can be removed as other diff commands also simply print the diff and thus it makes sense. I will be adding the test cases soon. Let me know what should be the case.

Instead of this looking at just file contents, I think it would be much better if path data would be taken into account (which also can be done for local directories, as they are expected to have the same structure as a decompressed tar).

This way, not only differences in file content would be observed. But also things being moved (or swapped) from file A -> B, files changing from path, etc.
