Bug Description
Please sync diffutils 1:3.5-1 (main) from Debian unstable (main)
Explanation of FeatureFreeze exception:
diffutils is seeded in every Ubuntu flavor.
The new version adds a --color option (like git diff or ls --diff) (LP: #1486128)

If this FFe is approved, I would need sponsorship.
Changelog entries since current yakkety version 1:3.3-3:
diffutils (1:3.5-1) unstable; urgency=low
* New upstream release.
* Drop all patches, as none of them is required anymore.
* There are now --color and --palette options. Closes: #396485.
* Exit status of diff for binary files that differ is now 1, not 2,
as mandated by POSIX. Closes: #737180.
* Option --no-dereference is now documented in manpage. Closes: #804544.
