Description

Add an extension point for custom query parsers to determine the similarity distance for fuzzy queries. This will be used by the elasticsearch query parser to customise how similarity distances are determined.

This issue was filed in response to a question raise on the lucene-dev mailing list, see: https://lists.apache.org/thread.html/r831b11f918e4e7ead6f4a5fc7b28bec804ff449ae7d5acec9153c37a%40%3Cdev.lucene.apache.org%3E
