#' Methods to Remove Unsemantic Text Prior to Diff
#'
#' \code{\link[=diffPrint]{diff*}} methods, in particular \code{diffPrint},
#' modify the text representation of an object prior to running the diff to
#' reduce the incidence of spurious mismatches caused by unsemantic differences.
#' For example, we look to remove matrix row indices and atomic vector indices
#' (i.e. the \samp{[1,]} or \samp{[1]} strings at the beginning of each display
#' line).
#'
#' Consider: \preformatted{
#' > matrix(10:12)
#'      [,1]
#' [1,]   10
#' [2,]   11
#' [3,]   12
#' > matrix(11:12)
#'      [,1]
#' [1,]   11
#' [2,]   12
#' }
#' In this case, the line by line diff would find all rows of the matrix to
#' be mismatched because where the data matches (rows containing
#' 11 and 12) the indices do not.  By trimming out the row indices before
#' the diff, the diff can recognize that row 2 and 3  from the first matrix
#' should be matched to row 1 and 2 of the second.
#'
#' These methods follow a similar interface as the \code{\link[=guides]{guide*}}
#' methods, with one available for each \code{diff*} method except for
#' \code{diffCsv} since that one uses \code{diffPrint} internally.  The
#' unsemantic differences are added back after the diff for display purposes,
#' and are colored in grey to indicate they are ignored in the diff.
#'
#' Currently only \code{trimPrint} and \code{trimStr} do anything meaningful.
#' \code{trimPrint} removes row index headers provided that they are of the
#' default un-named variety.  If you add row names, or if numeric row indices
#' are not ascending from 1, they will not be stripped as those have meaning.
#' \code{trimStr} removes the \samp{..$}, \samp{..-}, and \samp{..@} tokens
#' to minimize spurious matches.
#'
#' You can modify how text is trimmed by providing your own functions to the
#' \code{trim} argument of the \code{diff*} methods, or by defining
#' \code{trim*} methods for your objects.  Note that the return value for these
#' functions is the start and end columns of the text that should be
#' \emph{kept} and used in the diff.
#'
#' As with guides, trimming is on a best efforts basis and may fail with
#' \dQuote{pathological} display representations.  Since the diff still works
#' even with failed trimming this is considered an acceptable compromise.
#' Trimming is more likely to fail with nested recursive structures.
#'
#' @note \code{obj.as.chr} will be as processed by
#'   \code{\link{strip_hz_control}} and as such will not be identical to the
#'   captured output if it contains tabs, newlines, or carriage returns.
