Rollup merge of #108773 - jyn514:faster-tidy-fmt, r=albertlarsan68

x fmt: Only check modified files locally

Previously, `x fmt` would only format modified files, while `x fmt .` and `x fmt --check` would still look at all files. After this change, `x fmt --check` only looks at modified files locally.

I feel pretty confident in this change - other than https://github.com/rust-lang/rust/issues/106261, no one has reported bugs in `get_modified_rs_files` since it was added in https://github.com/rust-lang/rust/pull/105702.

Combined with the changes in https://github.com/rust-lang/rust/pull/108772, this brings the time for me to run `x t tidy` with a hot FS cache down from 5 to 2 seconds (and moves the majority of the time spent back to `tidy check`, which means it can be sped up more in the future).
