"Link" corresponding line versions on Left&Right

Sometimes when comparing 2 revisions of a versioned file, TortoiseMerge
displays left & right versions of the same line on different positions
(heights).
Now, user can't do anything with it (if really he can - forgive me for bad
request).

The suggestion is to let user mark versions of the same line as
corresponding. Remember his choice for the future comparisons.
Store a set of line matchings for each versioned file. During comparisons
use them in following way:
1. "Split" both file revisions by pairs of linked lines,
2. Compare each pair of corresponding parts individually,
3. Compare each pair of linked lines individually.

Maybe, to simplify algorithms, support line-linking only between adjacent
file revisions.
