Given a set of lines from the file we are patching, and a patch itself,
this function will try and locate where in the file to apply that patch,
and write the result of patching that file (if successful) to the output
stream.
Even though the toolchain implicitly links against -lc, it does not know
where it should get LibC from except for the sysroot. In the case of
Clang this causes it to pick up the LibC stub instead, which might be
slightly outdated and feature missing symbols.
This is currently not an issue that manifests because we pass through
the dependency on LibC and other libraries by accident, which causes
CMake to link against the LibC target (instead of just the library),
and thus points the linker at the build output directory.
Since we are looking to fix that in the upcoming commits, let's make
sure that everything will still be able to find the proper LibC first.
For now this is just a standard implementation of the longest
common subsequence algorithm over the lines, except that it doesn't
do any coalescing of the lines. This isn't really ideal since
we get a single Hunk per changed line, and is definitely something
to improve in the future.
