A list of the changes included in this build (since the last daily)
follows:

Changes for Build #280
[Dan Drogichen <chirp.cordless at xoxy.net>] [developer] Add diffs-only mode to file diff utility - #1699

Adds an alternate display mode to the developer tools whole-file hex
dump/diff utility in which only lines which are different are printed.
Ranges of one or more lines that do not differ are replaced with a
single blank line.

This mode is invoked by setting the first memory location in the
"Diff Radios" popup to -2. The existing functionality invoked by -1
is not affected.

#1699


Changes for Build #281
[Dan Drogichen <chirp.cordless at xoxy.net>] [developer] Add info re: hex dump modes to "Diff Radios" dialog - #1753

When the developer tools are enabled and more than one image is loaded in
chirp, selecting View -> Developer -> Diff tabs will open a dialog window
that allows specification of two image/memory# pairs to be bitwise compared.
Within this window, as special cases, selecting -1 as either memory number
will invoke a full-file hex dump with diffs between the two files
highlighted, and -2 as the first invokes a similar dump but with only
the highlighted diffs shown.

This feature is not obvious from the dialog appearance or usual semantics
for memory number. This change adds two lines of text to this dialog window
declaring that this feature exists.

#1753
