Compute bitmask representing difference in attribute values.

Parameters:
aan object
banother object of same type

The bitmask returned is specific to an object type, each bit set represents an attribute which mismatches in either of the two objects. Unavailability of an attribute in one object and presence in the other is regarded a mismatch as well.

Returns:
Bitmask describing differences or 0 if they are completely identical.
