Fix Error 500 when creating a merge request that contains an image that was deleted and added

Steps to reproduce:

1. Start with a repo with an image
2. Add a commit to delete the image
3. Add another commit to replace the image with another image

In a diff comparison, we really just compare about what the image was before the diff, not
the direct parent of the last commit. This MR fixes that.

Closes #3893, gitlab-org/gitlab-ee#678
