mdiff: speed up showfunc for large diffs
This addresses the following issues with showfunc:
- Silly usage of regular expressions.
- Doing str.rstrip() needlessly in an inner loop.
- Doing catastrophic backtracking when trying to find a function line.
Finding function text is now at worst O(n lines in the old file), and
at best close to O(n hunks).
Given a diff like this[1]:

src/main/java/uk/ac/cam/ch/wwmm/pregenerated/ChemicalChunkerLexer.java | 2 +-

Without this change, hg log --stat --config diff.showfunc=1 takes an
absurdly long time to complete:
