Description

test-patch.sh reports that a specific number of warnings has changed but it does not provide an easy way to see which ones have changed. For at least the javac warnings we should be able to provide a diff of the warnings in addition to the total count, because we capture the full compile log both before and after applying the patch.

For javadoc warnings it would be nice to be able to provide a filtered list of the warnings based off of the files that were modified in the patch.
