Decorate diffs/PRs to indicate or remove "non-functional" changes (e.g. from eslint, prettier)

Feature request description

The user isn't sure how this would look or work (a separate Sourcegraph UI? Some annotation injected into a GitHub PR?)

  • There are some diffs that don’t change meaning (e.g. code going through anb auto formatter like eslint/prettier)
  • In PR reviews this creates noise
  • Can Sourcegraph understand that nothing meaningful changed here and make the review simpler and faster
  • “Non-functionality changing diffs”
