range-diff: first rudimentary implementation
At this stage, `git range-diff` can determine corresponding commits
of two related commit ranges. This makes use of the recently introduced
implementation of the linear assignment algorithm.
The core of this patch is a straight port of the ideas of tbdiff, the
apparently dormant project at https://github.com/trast/tbdiff.
The output does not at all match `tbdiff`'s output yet, as this patch
really concentrates on getting the patch matching part right.
Note: due to differences in the diff algorithm (`tbdiff` uses the Python
module `difflib`, Git uses its xdiff fork), the cost matrix calculated
by `range-diff` is different (but very similar) to the one calculated
by `tbdiff`. Therefore, it is possible that they find different matching
commits in corner cases (e.g. when a patch was split into two patches of
roughly equal length).
