"""Efficiently compare files, boolean outcome only (equal / not equal).
Tricks (used in this order):
- Use the statcache module to avoid statting files more than once
- Files with identical type, size & mtime are assumed to be clones
- Files with different type or size cannot be identical
- We keep a cache of outcomes of earlier comparisons
- We don't fork a process to run 'cmp' but read the files ourselves
