Fix overeager spelling corrections (PR c/82967)
This patch tunes class best_match's cutoff for rejecting meaningless
spelling suggestions.
Previously, we allowed an edit distance of up to half of the length of the
longer of the goal string and closest candidate strings, rounded down.
With this patch, we now allow only up to a third - with some tuning of
rounding (and for very short strings), to ensure that:
(a) everything that worked before still works (with the removal of a
couple of cases that shouldn't), and that
(b) the new threshold is always at least as conservative as the old
threshold and thus shouldn't offer new nonsensical suggestions (with
the possible exception of cases where transposition has helped; see
r261521 aka Damerau-Levenshtein; PR other/69968).
In particular, all of the bogus suggestions from PR c/82967 are now
no longer offered.
