Since structures with `flexible array members' are an incomplete datatype ANSI
C99 forbids creating instances of them. This patch removes such an instance
from `diff-lib.c' and replaces it with a pointer to a `struct
combine_diff_path'. Since all neccessary memory is allocated at once the number
of calls to `xmalloc' is not increased.
