[New-bugs-announce] [issue2057] difflib: add patch capability

[anatoly techtonik]

New submission from anatoly techtonik:

difflib alone and bundled Tools\Scripts\diff.py utility are both very
useful, esp. on windows platforms where standard unix diffutils are
absent. However, python difflib still doesn't have a patch counterpart
to apply at least unified diff format.
