[PATCH v2 1/2] xdiff: reassign xpparm_t.flags bits

We have packed the bits too tightly in such a way that it is not easy to add a new type of whitespace ignoring option, a new type of LCS algorithm, or a new type of post-cleanup heuristics. Reorder bits a bit to give room for these three classes of options to grow. Also make use of
