A general cleanup on how diff drivers are implemented.  Its still
missing documentation updates and tests but doesn't break anything
current as far as I can tell.  It needs more review before it can
be slated for 'next'.

I should note, too, that this is in direct competition with Matthieu
Moy's "Implementation of a textconv filter for easy custom diff" posted
about a week ago. So if you are reviewing this series, please review
both and decide which you think is more sensible.
