Mike Gerwitz c33adee21d client: Truncate diff posted to server after first null
Before this change, since `undefined' is encoded as `null' when serialized,
there was no way for the server to disambiguate between unmodified values
and a truncation point.  For example:

  [ undefined, undefined, null, null, null ]

The above array represents two unmodified and three removed indexes.  But
this is serialzed into JSON as:

  [ null, null, null, null, null ]

It isn't possible for the server to determine what the truncation point is
from that diff.  The solution is to therefore truncate the array _before_
sending it to the server, providing a trailing null to indicate that a
truncation has occurred:

  [ null, null, null ]

The above means that the first two indexes are unmodified, and that index 2
and later should all be truncated.

* doc/client.texi (Saving to Server): New section.
* src/client/transport/XhttpQuoteTransport.js (_truncateDiff): New method to
  perform truncation.
  (getBucketDataJson): Use it.
* test/client/transport/XhttpQuoteTransportTest.js: New file with respective
  test case.

Liza Data Collection Framework

Liza is a data collection, validation, and processing framework for JavaScript.

About

The Liza Data Collection Framework—"Liza" for short—is an effort to clean up, formalize, and expand upon a framework that was developed at RT Specialty / LoVullo for collecting, validating, and processing large amounts of user input for insurance quoting.

Configuring

If your distribution does not contain a `configure' file in the project root, then you likely have the sources as committed to the project repository; you may generate the script by issuing the following command:

  $ ./autogen.sh

You may then see ./configure --help for more information.

Building

If configure is not available, see the section "Configuring" above.

  $ ./configure   # see --help for optional arguments
  $ make          # build
  $ make check    # run test cases

Documentation

Compiled documentation for the latest release is available via our GitLab mirror, which uses the same build pipeline as we do on our internal GitLab instance. Available formats are:
