Summary0001702: File comparison reports that files are identical when trailing bytes are different
DescriptionThe file comparison says that two binary files are identical when one of them has
some extra bytes (while the rest of the data is the same). For example:

1.bin: \x00abc
2.bin: \x00abcd

Here, the data in both files is the same, except that 2.bin has an extra "d" bite.
Obviously, the files are different, but DC says that they are the same.
Steps To ReproduceTry to compare attached files.
TagsNo tags attached.
Attached Files
1.bin (4 bytes)
2.bin (5 bytes)

This only happens in binary mode. The difference is highlighted correctly, so the only problem is the pop-up dialog that says that files are the same while they are actually different.
