Minor fixes, cleanups, and clarifications · 145e696b
There are three actual changes in this commit: 1. When the trailing newline of a file is removed in a diff, the change will now be reported with `GIT_DIFF_LINE_DEL_EOFNL` passed to the callback. Previously, the `ADD_EOFNL` constant was given which was just an error in my understanding of when the various circumstances arose. `GIT_DIFF_LINE_ADD_EOFNL` is deprecated and should never be generated. A new newline is simply an `ADD`. 2. Rewrote the `diff_delta__merge_like_cgit` function that contains the core logic of the `git_diff_merge` implementation. The new version doesn't actually have significantly different behavior, but the logic should be much more obvious, I think. 3. Fixed a bug in `git_diff_merge` where it freed a string pool while some of the string data was still in use. This led to `git_diff_print_patch` accessing memory that had been freed. The rest of this commit contains improved documentation in `diff.h` to make the behavior and the equivalencies with core git clearer, and a bunch of new tests to cover the various cases, oh and a minor simplification of `examples/diff.c`.
