    [liveedit] Add Myers algorithm diffing implementation · 031d76a4
    Simon Zünd authored
    This CL adds a new diffing implementation based on Myers algorithm
    to live editing. We straight-up implement the algorithm presented in
    "Myers, E.W. An O(ND) difference algorithm and its variations (1986)"
    particularly the "Linear space refinement" presented in section 4b.
    
    Note that the CL does not enable the new algorithm straight-away.
    We'll land a separate CL for easier revertability.
    
    Myers algorithm is a great improvement over the current dynamic
    programming approach. Local benchmarking with a 130kB script
    has shown drastic improvements both for time and space:
    
        Live editing script (Old line count 10236 vs New 10240)
        Dynamic Programming: 65701.931 ms
        Myers:               11.735 ms
