range-diff: use a hunk callback

When we count the lines in a diff, we don't actually care about the
contents of each line. By using a hunk callback, we tell xdiff that it
does not need to even bother generating a hunk header line, saving a
small amount of work.

Arguably we could even ignore the hunk headers completely, since we're
just computing a cost function between patches. But doing it this way
maintains the exact same behavior before and after.
