[PATCH v2 1/3] patch-id: make it stable against hunk reordering
Patch id changes if you reorder hunks in a diff. As the result is functionally equivalent, this is surprising to many people. In particular, reordering hunks is helpful to make patches more readable (e.g. API header diff before implementation diff). In git, it is often done e.g. using the "-O <orderfile>" option, so supporting it better has value.
Hunks within file can be reordered manually provided the same pathname can appear more than once in the input.
Change patch-id behaviour making it stable against hunk reodering: - prepend header to each hunk (if not there) Note: POSIX requires patch to be robust against hunk reordering provided each diff hunk has a header: http://pubs.opengroup.org/onlinepubs/7908799/xcu/patch.html If the patch file contains more than one patch, patch will attempt to apply each of them as if they came from separate patch files. (In this case the name of the patch file must be determinable for each diff listing.)
- calculate SHA1 hash for each hunk separately - sum all hashes to get patch id
Add a new flag --unstable to get the historical behaviour.
Add --stable which is a nop, for symmetry.

Changes from v1: documented motivation for supporting hunk reordering (and not just file reordering). No code changes.
Junio, you didn't respond so I'm not sure whether I convinced you that supporting hunk reordering within file has value. So I kept this functionality around for now, if you think I should drop this, please let me know explicitly. Thanks, and sorry about being dense!
