Expand description

Diffs two slices of bytes. The returned diff hunks may be any length (may span many lines or may be only part of a line). This currently uses Histogram diff (or maybe something similar; I’m not sure I understood the algorithm correctly). It first diffs lines in the input and then refines the changed ranges at the word level.
