bdiff: write a native version of splitnewlines

./hg perfunidiff mercurial/manifest.py 0 --count 500 --profile before:
! wall 0.309280 comb 0.350000 user 0.290000 sys 0.060000 (best of 32)

./hg perfunidiff mercurial/manifest.py 0 --count 500 --profile after:
! wall 0.241572 comb 0.260000 user 0.240000 sys 0.020000 (best of 39)

so it's about 20% faster. I hate Python. I wish we could usefully
write this in Rust, but it doesn't look like that's realistic without
using the cpython crate, which I'd still like to avoid.

#require no-pure

A script to generate nasty diff worst-case scenarios:

  $ cat > s.py <<EOF
  > import random
  > for x in xrange(100000):
  >     print
  >     if random.randint(0, 100) >= 50:
  >         x += 1
  >     print(hex(x))
  > EOF

  $ hg init a
  $ cd a

Check in a big file:

  $ $PYTHON ../s.py > a
  $ hg ci -qAm0

Modify it:

  $ $PYTHON ../s.py > a

Time a check-in, should never take more than 10 seconds user time:

  $ hg ci --time -m1
  time: real .* secs .user [0-9][.].* sys .* (re)
