"Ignore whitespace changes": ignores changes in a sequence of whitespace
chars, i.e. treats a sequence of whitespace chars as one whitespace char.

Example:
this<space><tab>is a text
this<tab><space><tab>is a text
will be considered as equal, but
<tab>this<space><tab>is a text
this<space><tab>is a text
will be considered different.

"Ignore all whitespaces": ignores all whitespace changes
In the example above, the second two lines would be considered equal too.
