refactor(checkout-diff): rely solely on subscription for data

Drop the one-shot getCheckoutDiff query and use skipToken; the
subscribe_checkout_diff flow populates the cache on subscribe response
and updates. Derive isLoading from the presence of cached payload and
remove the now-unused isError/error fields from git-diff-pane.
