diff_filespec: use only 2 bits for is_binary flag

The is_binary flag needs only three values: -1, 0, and 1.
However, we use a whole 32-bit int for it on most systems
(both 32- and 64- bit).

Instead, we can mark it to use only 2 bits. On 32-bit
systems, this lets it end up as part of the bitfield above
(saving 4 bytes). On 64-bit systems, we don't see any change
(because the savings end up as padding), but it does leave
room for another "free" 32-bit value to be added later.
