[PATCH -next] scripts: add compare-config utility

From: Chen Lifu
Date: Fri Mar 18 2022 - 03:55:10 EST


This is an alternative utility to compare two Linux .config files.
Unlike existing utilities such as "diffconfig" in the Linux kernel tree,
it prints detailed results in table style. It is useful sometimes,
e.g. for those who need to analyze .config files through tables.
