This inserts a new function xdi_diff() that currently does not
do anything other than calling the underlying xdl_diff() to the
callchain of current callers of xdl_diff() function.

The instances of xdemitconf_t were initialized member by member.
Instead, initialize them to all zero, so we do not have
to update those places each time we introduce a new member.
[jc: minimally fixed by getting rid of a new global]

We currently have two parallel notation for dealing with object types
in the code: a string and a numerical value. One of them is obviously
redundent, and the most used one requires more stack space and a bunch
of strcmp() all over the place.
This is an initial step for the removal of the version using a char array
found in object reading code paths. The patch is unfortunately large but
there is no sane way to split it in smaller parts without breaking the
system.

Now that we have git-merge-file, an RCS merge lookalike, we no longer
need it. So long, merge, and thanks for all the fish!

Like xmalloc and xrealloc xstrdup dies with a useful message if
the native strdup() implementation returns NULL rather than a
valid pointer.
I just tried to use xstrdup in new code and found it to be missing.
However I expected it to be present as xmalloc and xrealloc are
already commonly used throughout the code.
[jc: removed the part that deals with last_XXX, which I am
finding more and more dubious these days.]

This fleshes out the code that generates a three-way merge of a set of
blobs.
It still actually does the three-way merge using an external executable
(ie just calling "merge"), but the interfaces have been cleaned up a lot
and are now fully based on the 'mmfile_t' interface, so if libxdiff were
to ever grow a compatible three-way-merge, it could probably be directly
plugged in.
It also uses the previous XDL_EMIT_COMMON functionality extension to
libxdiff to generate a made-up base file for the merge for the case where
no base file previously existed. This should be equivalent to what we
currently do in git-merge-one-file.sh:
diff -u -La/$orig -Lb/$orig $orig $src2 | git-apply --no-add
except it should be much simpler and can be done using the direct libxdiff
interfaces.
