This is a complete rewrite of the series. Highlights:
* instead of buffering partial lines, we'll pretend all diff output
follows a well defined grammar, and we emit symbols thereof.
(The difference is mostly mental, though by this trick we reduce
the memory footprint for storing one of these symbols from 7 variables
(3 pointers, 3 ints, one state (also int) down to 4 variables
(one pointer, 2 ints, one state).
* The algorithm for color painting was detangled:
-> different functions for block detection and dimming
-> The last patch (not to be applied) is an RFC that shows
how we would approach non-colored, but machine parseable highlighting
of moved lines.
Thanks,
