Adds $syntax (ago/from-now, before/after, or absolute), $short unit abbreviations, $parts to join multiple units, and an $options bitmask (NO_ZERO_DIFF, JUST_NOW, ONE_DAY_WORDS, TWO_DAY_WORDS, SEQUENTIAL_PARTS_ONLY) to diff_for_humans(), verified against Carbon's actual source. Two deliberate deviations, documented on the method: $syntax always defaults to relative-to-now wording regardless of whether $other is passed (Carbon silently switches to before/after in that case), and Carbon's ROUND/FLOOR/CEIL rounding cascade is not implemented.
