JavaScript: Stop breaking surrogate pairs in toDelta()
Resolves google#69 for JavaScript Sometimes we can find a common prefix that runs into the middle of a surrogate pair and we split that pair when building our diff groups. This is fine as long as we are operating on UTF-16 code units. It becomes problematic when we start trying to treat those substrings as valid Unicode (or UTF-8) sequences. When we pass these split groups into `toDelta()` we do just that and the library crashes. In this patch we're post-processing the diff groups before encoding them to make sure that we un-split the surrogate pairs. The post-processed diffs should produce the same output when applying the diffs. The diff string itself will be different but should change that much - only by a single character at surrogate boundaries.
