What do you think about adding another variable `split-window-function'
with the default value `split-window-vertically' or nil with the same
meaning, and the possible other value `split-window-horizontally'?
This would be like setting `ediff-split-window-function' to
`split-window-horizontally'.
Since this value will hold a function we can set it to any function
that implements different heuristics to decide how to split the window:
whether to take into account the window size or the window name, etc.
