Is it necessary to install Cygwin (which includes diff) or MinGW (which presumably also does) for something as simple as determining the differences between foobar.txt and foobar.txt~?

You don't need those long as you have a diff.exe program, such as the GNUWin32 diff-utils version, in your PATH. Emacs itself doesn't include the mechanics for performing the diffs.
