📝 Walkthrough

Summary by CodeRabbit

• New Features

  • Added support for displaying configuration differences at a specified path.
  • Added separate inclusive and exclusive masking operations for configuration comparisons.

• Bug Fixes

  • Improved handling of diff results and backend errors through the public configuration API.
  • Updated masking behavior to use dedicated operations for more consistent results.

Walkthrough

The OCaml bindings now use dedicated diff, union, derived-subtree, and mask modules. The API adds diff_show and replaces mask_tree with mask_inclusive and mask_exclusive.

Changes

Diff and mask API

Layer / File(s)	Summary
Backend operation bindings libvyosconfig/lib/bindings.ml	Dedicated modules and exceptions handle diff, union, mask, and derived-subtree operations. C stubs register diff_show, mask_inclusive, and mask_exclusive, and remove mask_tree (lines 10-18, 422-543, 609-614).
Python API wrappers python/vyos/configtree.py	Adds diff_show with validation, backend error conversion, and result unescaping. Mask methods call the dedicated backend functions (lines 582-607, 659-666, 685-692).
