Research direction

Start by locating the existing diff-hashing implementation and its current Patchwork dependency boundaries. Determine how it can be packaged independently for PyPI; done means the hasher is available as a separate library without requiring the full Patchwork project.

Written by the indexing model from the issue text.

Description

You have one of the best, maybe the only implementation of diff hashing available. I'd like too use it KernelCI project, but without linking the whole Patchwork as a dependency.

Would you willing to make hasher a separate library available on pypi?
