Solarized coloration does not work on a diff file

[mrvkino]

The default Solarized Dark or Light does not color the text in a diff file (actual diff or patch file).

• VSCode Version: 1.9.0
• OS Version: Macos 10.12.3

Steps to Reproduce:

1. Use the default VSCode Solarized theme and the text is grey
2. Open a diff or patch file
3. Change for another theme like Red to see the diff file text be in color

Duplicate #19735

I am talking about an actual diff or patch file used to patch C code. Not the diff view generated by VSCode for the git integration.

#19735 seems more about the diff view from the git sidebar.

I have updated the issue explanation to clarify that I am talking about the actual file and not the git view from VSCode.
