When comparing two lines, ignoring any whitespace at the end, we first
try to match as many bytes as possible and break out of the loop only
upon mismatch, to let the remainder be handled by the code shared with
the other whitespace-ignoring code paths.
When comparing the bytes, however, we incremented the counters always,
even if the bytes did not match. And because we fall through to the
space-at-eol handling at that point, it is as if that mismatch never
happened.

Because the default Myers, patience and histogram algorithms cannot be in
effect at the same time, XDL_PATIENCE_DIFF and XDL_HISTOGRAM_DIFF are not
independent bits. Instead of wasting one bit per algorithm, define a few
macros to access the few bits they occupy and update the code that access
them.

This is in preparation for the histogram diff algorithm, which will also
re-use much of the code to call the default Meyers diff algorithm.

The patience diff algorithm produces slightly more intuitive output
than the classic Myers algorithm, as it does not try to minimize the
number of +/- lines first, but tries to preserve the lines that are
unique.
To this end, it first determines lines that are unique in both files,
then the maximal sequence which preserves the order (relative to both
files) is extracted.
Starting from this initial set of common lines, the rest of the lines
is handled recursively, with Myers' algorithm as a fallback when
the patience algorithm fails (due to no common unique lines).
This patch includes memory leak fixes by Pierre Habouzit.
