David Mark Nemeskey updated LUCENE-3173:
----------------------------------------

    Description: 
In an IRC discussion with Robert Muir, it has come up that the names of certain 
classes and methods in the search package do not describe the role of the class 
or method in question. Therefore, we propose the following name changes:
- Scorer to Matcher
- Similarity.computeWeight() to Similarity.computeStats()
- Similarity.DocScorer to Similarity.Scorer*

*: Under consideration.

The reason for the name computeStats() is that this method will be used by the 
new Similarity subclasses to compute all the statistics they need, not just idf.
