Add a diff driver for Scheme-like languages which recognizes top level
and local `define` forms, whether it is a function definition, binding,
syntax definition or a user-defined `define-xyzzy` form.
Also supports R6RS `library` forms, `module` forms along with class and
struct declarations used in Racket (PLT Scheme).
Alternate "def" syntax such as those in Gerbil Scheme are also
supported, like defstruct, defsyntax and so on.
The rationale for picking `define` forms for the hunk headers is because
it is usually the only significant form for defining the structure of
the program, and it is a common pattern for schemers to have local
function definitions to hide their visibility, so it is not only the top
level `define`'s that are of interest. Schemers also extend the language
with macros to provide their own define forms (for example, something
like a `define-test-suite`) which is also captured in the hunk header.
Since it is common practice to extend syntax with variants of a form
like `module+`, `class*` etc, those have been supported as well.
The word regex is a best-effort attempt to conform to R7RS[1] valid
identifiers, symbols and numbers.

The Linux kernel receives many patches to the devicetree files each
release. The hunk header for those patches typically show nothing,
making it difficult to figure out what node is being modified without
applying the patch or opening the file and seeking to the context. Let's
add a builtin 'dts' pattern to git so that users can get better diff
output on dts files when they use the diff=dts driver.
The regex has been constructed based on the spec at devicetree.org[1]
and with some help from Johannes Sixt.

CSS is widely used, motivating it being included as a built-in pattern.
It must be noted that the word_regex for CSS (i.e. the regex defining
what is a word in the language) does not consider '.' and '#' characters
(in CSS selectors) to be part of the word. This behavior is documented
by the test t/t4018/css-rule.
The logic behind this behavior is the following: identifiers in CSS
selectors are identifiers in a HTML/XML document. Therefore, the '.'/'#'
character are not part of the identifier, but an indicator of the nature
of the identifier in HTML/XML (class or id). Diffing ".class1" and
".class2" must show that the class name is changed, but we still are
selecting a class.
Logic behind the "pattern" regex is:
1. reject lines ending with a colon/semicolon (properties)
2. if a line begins with a name in column 1, pick the whole line

The builtin word regexes should be tested with some simple examples
against simple issues. Do this in bulk.
Mainly due to a lack of language knowledge and inspiration, most of
the test cases (cpp, csharp, java, objc, pascal, php, python, ruby)
are directly based off a C operator precedence table to verify that
all operators are split correctly. This means that they are probably
incomplete or inaccurate except for 'cpp' itself.
Still, they are good enough to already have uncovered a typo in the
python and ruby patterns.
'fortran' is based on my anecdotal knowledge of the DO10I parsing
rules, and thus probably useless. The rest (bibtex, html, tex) are an
ad-hoc test of what I consider important splits in those languages.
