The behavior of C-x v u in the diff buffer was improved in emacs-29
to revert all files mentioned in the diff.  In emacs-28 it reverted
only one file, but in emacs-29 when the diff buffer shows many files,
such as after C-x v D, all these files are reverted.

But as you noticed it doesn't refresh the buffer.  This is because
vc-deduce-fileset in the diff buffer now returns relative file names,
not absolute as vc-resynch-buffer expects.

Expanding relative file names to absolute is not possible in
diff-vc-deduce-fileset, because then C-x v v will fail in
vc-default-checkin-patch that expects relative file names.

So I think the right place to do this is before trying to compare
relative names with (string= buffer-file-name file):

```
diff --git a/lisp/vc/vc-dispatcher.el b/lisp/vc/vc-dispatcher.el
index e1a3eff448d..3f9c39f2aff 100644
