git diff to update ttextproc/tkdiff ftom 4.3 to 5.0

Update textproc/tkdiff from version 4.3 to 5.0
Brief summary of changes:
V 5.0
   * New-Diff Dialog can now request Conflict file comparisons
    - It also permits choosing a preferred SCM system from among those
    - detected, and is now ALWAYS the defaulted first operation when
    - NO command line arguments are given - UNLESS one specific user
    - preference has PREVIOUSLY been set which requests that the SCM
    - inquire for currently uncommitted changes and supply those as
    - parameters instead (not all SCMs can do this). For those that do,
    - that search request may ALSO be accessed for the current session
    - via the Dialog, even when such preference has been set to Off.
   * CVS (like Git and Subversion) is now capable of automatic inquiry
   * ALL SCMs capable of inquiry also pass CONFLICTED files when found
   * URLs (Svn style) are now accepted as FileSpecs in Dialog or Cmd use.
    - Including both versioned and defaulted styles, and as an Ancestor.
   * Multiple SCM involvement is now possible.
   * Merging when using an Ancestor file (ie. a 3-way diff) now provides
    - *Ancestral markers* for deletion activities, similar to those
    - already provided for additions, which also participate in both
    - automatic merge selection choices AND collision detection, all in
    - support of assuring that COMPLETE changes from both files being
    - merged are accounted for.
   * Upgraded Conflictfile parsing to accept **diff3**-style file content
    - providing the ability to treat it as in a 3-way Diff mode.
   * Interactive diff-region suppression (ie. ignoring) is now possible
   * Eliminated a TK-update race condition that was randomly responsible
    - for odd crashes and potentially inconsistent screen updates
   * Minor feature enhancements:
    - Window manager is now provided a graphic to represent TkDiff
    - **Displayed** file NAMES now *try* to be shorter by truncating the CWD
    - Failed (or inconsistent) Diff executions are no longer **fatal**
    - 3-way Diffs using a non-unique Ancestor now simply drops 3-way mode
   * Small repairs involving: line numbering; Mac tooltip rendering;
    - several hilighting anomolies involving *suppressed* Diff regions;
    - and missing bindings when positioned over various Text-adjacent
    - Info windows involving scroll operations. Lastly, filenames with
    - *sensitive* characters (Dollar, square-Bracket) in their names
    - will no longer crash, and the default setting for Filebrowser
    - view-content filters is now specified properly.
   * And the builtin Help is updated to cover aspects of ALL the changes

That's it.
Thanks! :-)
