Let me describe how log-view-diff was supposed to work since its introduction
~20 years ago until its behavior was changed accidentally one and half year ago:
when the user puts the beginning of the region on the line with one revision,
and the end of the region on the line with another revision, the function
'log-view-diff-common' extracts the 'from' revision from the line
with the first revision, and the 'to' revision from the line
with the second revision.
bug#28466 tried to improve the logic when the end of the region is
at the end of the buffer, but mistakenly broke long-established behavior,
so currently 'from' falls thru to its previous revision.
