I copied the doc string from `vc-version-diff' that doesn't describe its
arguments. Now I fixed the doc string of `vc-version-diff' as well below.

`vc-root-diff' is not applicable to VCS without tree revisions, and
the manual says nothing about this. Maybe the manual should say this
explicitly for `vc-root-diff' as it says it for `vc-print-root-log'
in (info "(emacs) VC Change Log")
‘C-x v L’ (‘vc-print-root-log’) displays a ‘*vc-change-log*’ buffer
showing the history of the entire version-controlled directory tree
(RCS, SCCS, CVS, and SRC do not support this feature).
> Finally, we need documentation changes to go with this change of
> user-visible behavior.
This feature is already documented in (info "(emacs) Old Revisions")
‘C-x v D’
Compare the entire working tree to the revision you started from
(‘vc-root-diff’). With a prefix argument, prompt for two revisions
and compare their trees.
It didn't work as documented before properly implemented by the patch.
