extdiff: add comments and minor variable renames diffpatch() Some variable names were now confusing as we refactored the code in a separate function. For example, `node1a` leads to ideas why `1a` and not `1`. The variable storing path to patch file was named as `dirX` instead of `fileX`. Renamed these variables and added couple of comments.
