Don't try to delta if target is much smaller than source

Browse source 
Add a new try_delta heuristic.  Don't bother trying to make a delta if
the target object size is much smaller (currently 1/32) than the source,
as it's very likely not going to get a match.  Even if it does, you will
have to read at least 32x the size of the new file to reassemble it,
which isn't such a good deal.  This leads to a considerable performance
improvement when deltifying a mix of small and large files with a very
large window, because you don't have to wait for the large files to
percolate out of the window before things start going fast again.
