diffcore-delta: make change counter to byte oriented again.

The textual line oriented change counter was fun but was not
very effective.  It tended to overcount the changes.  This one
changes it to a simple N-letter substring based implementation.

* Idea here is very simple.
*
* We have total of (sz-N+1) N-byte overlapping sequences in buf whose
* size is sz. If the same N-byte sequence appears in both source and
* destination, we say the byte that starts that sequence is shared
* between them (i.e. copied from source to destination).
*
* For each possible N-byte sequence, if the source buffer has more
* instances of it than the destination buffer, that means the
* difference are the number of bytes not copied from source to
* destination. If the counts are the same, everything was copied
* from source to destination. If the destination has more,
* everything was copied, and destination added more.
*
* We are doing an approximation so we do not really have to waste
* memory by actually storing the sequence. We just hash them into
* somewhere around 2^16 hashbuckets and count the occurrences.
*
* The length of the sequence is arbitrarily set to 8 for now.
