xdiff: delete redundant array xdfile_t.ha

When 0 <= i < xdfile_t.nreff the following is true: xdfile_t.ha[i] == xdfile_t.recs[xdfile_t.rindex[i]] This makes the code about 5% slower. The fields rindex and ha are specific to the classic diff (myers and minimal). I plan on creating a struct for classic diff, but there's a lot of cleanup that needs to be done before that can happen and leaving ha in would make those cleanups harder to follow. A subsequent commit will delete the chastore cha from xdfile_t. That later commit will investigate deleting ha and cha independently and together.
