Iterative Levenshtein DP with rolling 1D arrays for O(min(m,n))
space. Distances:
kitten -> sitting : 3
saturday -> sunday : 3
abc -> abc : 0
"" -> abcde : 5
intention -> execution : 5
----------------------------
total : 16
Complementary to the existing levenshtein.ml which uses the
exponential recursive form (only sums tiny strings); this one is
the practical iterative variant used for real ED.
Tests the recently-fixed <- with bare `if` rhs:
curr.(j) <- (if m1 < c then m1 else c) + 1
153 baseline programs total.
