fugitive compatibility for viewing commits in PlugDiff

[cpmsmith]

In :PlugDiff, it's possible to hit enter on a given commit to view its content:

fugitive.vim has a very similar feature for viewing commits, but with extra features like being able to browse to other commits and files, and with rhubarb.vim and others, to open the equivalent forge URL e.g. on GitHub.

It'd be cool if vim-plug used fugitive to view commits when it's available.

Need some more testing, but this should do the trick.

The patch works. But it's considerably slower to open a commit, so users who don't need additional features of Fugitive may not like it.
