Please note that upstream is in the process of changing the command 
name[1], as the conflict was pointed out to them by a Fedora packager.

Furthermore, based on a quick search[2], patroni doesn't seem to require 
/usr/bin/cdiff anyway but rather the python module cdiff.

So, there should be no need to conflict with colordiff.
