…ltiple values There were two cases where CompilationDir wasn't filtering out changes: * if the parameter value is an arbitrary data structure (ie hash, array or mix of both) * if the parameter value is a string containing more than one occurence of the compilation dir It turns out that both can be fixed by just replacing the compilation dirs in both the new and old values with empty strings and comparing what's left. It's probably much slower than the original string-only implementation but covers much more cases as demonstrated by github#187 and github#188.
I noticed a few mistakes while reading the API documentation, and I couldn't resist to fix them.

We were having some compilation dir differences in our catalog diff because of several use cases that weren't covered by the current
CompilationDir.This change implements a different way of checking for the compilation dir so that
CompilationDirsupports complex parameter values (ie nested hashes/arrays) and/or strings containing the compilation dir more than once.To be noted that the chosen implementation might be much slower than the original algorithm because it defensively dups the parameter values. This might be problematic, and I'm open to suggestion on how to better implement this feature.
As a bonus I'm including a small minor fix of the API documentation of the diff object :)
