Subject: [PATCH] diffcore-delta: avoid ignoring final 'line' of file

hash_chars() would hash lines to integers, and store them in a spanhash,
but cut lines at 64 characters.  Thus, whenever it reached 64 characters
or a newline, it would create a new spanhash.  The problem is, the final
part of the file might not end 64 characters after the previous 'line'
and might not end with a newline.  This could, for example, cause an
85-byte file with 12 lines and only the first character in the file
differing to appear merely 23% similar rather than the expected 97%.
Ensure the last line is included, and add a testcase that would have
caught this problem.
