Revert "diff-delta: produce optimal pack data"

This reverts 6b7d25d97b commit.

It turns out that the new algorithm has a really bad corner
case, that literally spends minutes for inputs that takes less
than a quater seconds to delta with the old algorithm.  The
resulting delta is 50% smaller which is admirable, but the
performance degradation is simply unacceptable for unconditional
use.

Some example cases are these blobs in Linux 2.6 repository:
