Description

Right now wsdiff uses ctfdump -c and diff, it seems like it could productively use ctfdiff?

I considered that when I added the CTF stuff to wsdiff. I think the diff output from ctfdump -c is more useful here.
ctfdiff could be updated to produce type info in a more readable form, at present it outputs lines like:

ctf container /kernel/drv/amd64/poll object devpolltbl (27) is different
ctf container /kernel/drv/amd64/poll object dptblsize (28) is different
ctf container /kernel/drv/amd64/poll type 32775 is different
ctf container /kernel/drv/amd64/poll type 32776 is different
ctf container /kernel/drv/amd64/poll type 32777 is different
