   47%!  dif(+Term1, +Term2) is semidet.
   48%
   49%   Constraint that expresses that  Term1   and  Term2  never become
   50%   identical (==/2). Fails if `Term1 ==   Term2`. Succeeds if Term1
   51%   can  never  become  identical  to  Term2.  In  other  cases  the
   52%   predicate succeeds after attaching constraints   to the relevant
   53%   parts of Term1 and Term2 that prevent   the  two terms to become
   54%   identical.

   58    !,

   64The constraint is helt in  an   attribute  `dif`. A constrained variable
   65holds a term  vardif(L1,L2)  where  `L1`   is  a  list  OrNode-Value for
   66constraints on this variable  and  `L2`   is  the  constraint list other
   67variables have on me.
   68
   69The `OrNode` is a term node(Pairs), where `Pairs` is a of list Var=Value
   70terms representing the pending unifications. The  original dif/2 call is
   71represented by a single OrNode.
   72
   73If a unification related to an  OrNode   fails  the terms are definitely
   74unequal and thus we can kill all   pending constraints and succeed. If a
   75unequal related to an OrNode succeeds we   decrement  the `Count` of the
   76node. If the count  reaches  0  all   unifications  of  the  OrNode have
   77succeeded, the original terms are equal and thus we need to fail.
   78
   79The following invariants must hold
   80
   81  - Any variable involved in a dif/2 constraint has an attribute
   82    vardif(L1,L2), Where each element of both lists is a term
   83    OrNode-Value, L1 represents the values this variable may __not__
   84    become equal to and L2 represents this variable involved in other
   85    constraints.  I.e, L2 is only used if a dif/2 requires two variables
   86    to be different.
   87  - An OrNode has an attribute node(Pairs), where Pairs contains the
   88    possible unifications.

  178%!  simplify_ornode(+OrNode) is semidet.
  179%
  180%   Simplify the possible unifications left on the original dif/2 terms.
  181%   There are two reasons for simplification. First   of all, due to the
  182%   way unifiable works we may end up with variables in the unifier that
  183%   do not refer to the original terms,   but  to variables in subterms,
  184%   e.g. `[V1 = f(a, V2), V2 = b]`.   As a result of subsequent unifying
  185%   variables, the unifier may end up   having  multiple entries for the
  186%   same variable, possibly having different values, e.g.,  `[X = a, X =
  187%   b]`.  As  these  can  never  be  satified  both  we  have  prove  of
  188%   inequality.
  189%
  190%   Finally, we remove elements from the list that have become equal. If
  191%   the OrNode is empty, the original terms   are equal and thus we must
  192%   fail.

  229%   unification satisfied. For the rest we  remove the unifications with
  230%   _self_, append them and use this as new vardif term.
