Well... theoretically perhaps. With a binary diff of course a lot of
data from the original file is preserved. So any contact contained
entirely within an unchanged part of the file should be unchanged...
although it *might* have changed its offset within the file¹.

It would be fairly non-trivial to hook into the low-level LZX
decompression code and get a list of '{un,}changed ranges' though.
Especially when we're applying more than one delta at a time.

¹ which matters if we're storing the file offset so that we can recreate
  the vcard on demand from the original.
