Add two new xpparam_t fields (external_hunks, external_hunks_nr)
that let callers supply pre-computed hunks. When set, xdl_diff()
populates the changed[] arrays from these hunks instead of running
the diff algorithm, then continues through compaction and emission
as usual.
Validate supplied hunks before use: reject out-of-bounds line
numbers, overlapping or out-of-order hunks, negative counts, and
violations of the synchronization invariant (unchanged line counts
must match between files). On validation failure, fall back to
the builtin diff algorithm; this re-runs xdl_prepare_env() since
the first call may have dirtied the changed[] arrays.
Skip trim_common_tail() in xdi_diff() when external hunks are
present, since external hunks reference line numbers in the
original content.
