Paul Eggert 9b48bf3d3e diff: remove TOO_EXPENSIVE heuristic
Problem reported by Vincent Lefevre in <http://bugs.gnu.org/16848>.
The simplest solution is to remove the TOO_EXPENSIVE heuristic
that I added to GNU diff in 1993.  Although appropriate for
circa-1993 hardware, these days the heuristic seems to be more
trouble than it's worth.
* NEWS: Document this.
* doc/diffutils.texi (Overview): Modernize citations.
Remove mention of TOO_EXPENSIVE heuristic.
* src/analyze.c (diff_2_files): Adjust to TOO_EXPENSIVE-related
API changes in gnulib's diffseq module.
