Module diffable 

Format-agnostic diff computation traits and algorithms Format-agnostic diff and patch traits

This module provides traits for computing diffs and applying patches across different data formats. The DiffableValue trait enables structural comparison, while GenericPatch represents format-agnostic patch operations.

Key Types

• DiffableValue - Trait for values that can be compared for diffing
• DiffValueKind - Classification of value types for diff operations
• GenericPatchOperation - A single patch operation
• GenericPatch - A collection of patch operations

Example

use fionn_core::diffable::{DiffableValue, compute_diff};

let source: serde_json::Value = serde_json::json!({"name": "Alice"});
let target: serde_json::Value = serde_json::json!({"name": "Bob"});

let patch = compute_diff(&source, &target);
