1ac9f0e9f7 The attached patch implements the soundex difference function which
compares two strings' soundex values for similarity, from Kris Jurka.
Also mark the text_soundex() function as STRICT, to avoid crashing
on NULL input.

13629df5a1 Add double metaphone code from Andrew Dunstan. Also change metaphone so that
an empty input string causes an empty output string to be returned, instead of
throwing an ERROR -- per complaint from Aaron Hillegass, and consistent with
double metaphone. Fix examples in README.soundex pointed out by James Robinson.

cdd02cdf00 Sorry - I should have gotten to this sooner. Here's a patch which you should
be able to apply against what you just committed. It rolls soundex into
fuzzystrmatch.

Remove soundex/metaphone and merge into fuzzystrmatch.
