Function find_unmerged_mergeinfo()

Paul,

I was looking at
subversion/libsvn_client/merge.c:find_unmerged_mergeinfo() to review a
recent bug fix for back-port.

It is said to be a "Helper for calculate_left_hand_side()", but I
noticed it seems to be basically a function for comparing one mergeinfo
catalog with another, to see what has not been merged from one to the
other. That sounds like the same kind of calculation that normal merges,
and the "svn merginfo" command, perform.

Is there not an existing function we can use for this purpose?

(Of course this function takes its input in a specific format, and
generates several specific output indications, but those are details
that could be wrapped around a generic "compare mergeinfo catalogs"
function.)
