METRON-1061 Add FUZZY_SCORE STELLAR function
[Apache Commons Text
Similarity](https://commons.apache.org/proper/commons-text/javadocs/api-release/org/apache/commons/text/similarity/FuzzyScore.html)
FuzzyScore :
"A matching algorithm that is similar to the searching algorithms
implemented in editors such as Sublime Text, TextMate, Atom and others.
One point is given for every matched character. Subsequent matches yield
two bonus points. A higher score indicates a higher similarity."
This PR adds FUZZY_SCORE to STELLAR, exposing the Apache Commons FuzzyScore
class functionality.
This allows for fuzzy matching of strings to queries, and composing
statements based on thresholds related to those scores.
For example:
term = "metron"
query = "metron"
```java
16 == FUZZY_SCORE(term,query,'en')
```
+1 for each match and +2 bonus for the 2nd, 3rd, 4th, 5th, and 6th matches.
