// Package bytediff provides a simple diff utility for looking at differences in byte
// slices. It's slow, clunky, and not particularly good by any measure, but
// it does provide very useful visualizations for diffs between small byte
// slices.
//
// Our diff algorithm uses a dynamic programming implementation of longest common
// substring to find matching parts of slices, then recursively calls itself on
// the prefix/suffix of that matching part for each packet. This is a Bad Idea
// (tm) for normal (especially large) input, but for packets where large portions
// repeat frequently and we expect minor changes between results, it's actually
// quite useful.
