1"""Efficiently compare files, boolean outcome only (equal / not equal).

3Tricks (used in this order):
4 - Files with identical type, size & mtime are assumed to be clones
5 - Files with different type or size cannot be identical
6 - We keep a cache of outcomes of earlier comparisons
7 - We don't fork a process to run 'cmp' but read the files ourselves
