Advent of PBT 2021 - Day 23

/**
 * Each year, Santa receives wish lists coming from everywhere.
 *
 * Lists are ordered starting by the most important present to the last
 * important one. Santa does not always offer the most important one.
 * From time to time he wants to wait one more year to check if the
 * present stays in the top.
 *
 * Each year, Santa manually performs a diff of the list with
 * the one of the year before. Based on this diff he makes his choice.
 *
 * You can see the diff manually computed by Santa as an usual git diff
 * between two strings including many lines.
 *
 * Let's take the example:
 *
 *   Year N:
 *     Cars
 *     Trains
 *     Planes
 *
 *   Year N+1:
 *     Cars
 *     Buses
 *     Trains
 *     Boats
 *
 *   Diff of Santa:
 *     === Cars
 *     +++ Buses
 *     === Trains
 *     +++ Boats
 *     --- Planes
 *
 * @param before - String representing the list of presents (before)
 * @param after - String representing the list of presents (after)
