Task 39: Fix Coloring of Left-Indented Patch Diffs

UI bug: When patch diffs are rendered in left-indented mode, the ANSI color codes are misaligned, resulting in lost or incorrect coloring.

Status

General Status: Not started
Summary: Diagnose offset logic in diff renderer and adjust color processing to account for indentation.

Goal

Ensure diff lines maintain proper ANSI color highlighting even when indented on the left by a fixed margin.

Acceptance Criteria

• Diff render tests pass for both default and indented modes.
• Visual manual check confirms colored diff alignment.

Implementation

• Update diff renderer to strip indentation before applying color logic, then reapply indentation.
• Add unit tests for multiline indented diffs.
