Minor improvement to JavaDoc for ScoreDocComparator
---------------------------------------------------

                 Key: LUCENE-807
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/LUCENE-807
             Project: Lucene - Java
          Issue Type: Improvement
          Components: Javadocs
    Affects Versions: 2.1
            Reporter: Paul Cowan
            Priority: Trivial


About to attach a very small patch for ScoreDocComparator which broadens the 
contract of compare(ScoreDoc, ScoreDoc) to follow the same semantics as 
java.util.Comparator.compare() -- allow any integer to be returned, rather than 
specifically -1/0/-1.

Note that this behaviour must already be acceptable; the anonymous 
ScoreDocComparators returned by FieldSortedHitQueue.comparatorStringLocale() 
already return the result of Collator.compare(), which is not tied to this 
-1/0/1 restriction.
