DefaultSimilarity.queryNorm() should never return Infinity
----------------------------------------------------------

                 Key: LUCENE-901
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/LUCENE-901
             Project: Lucene - Java
          Issue Type: Bug
          Components: Search
            Reporter: Michael Busch
            Priority: Trivial


Currently DefaultSimilarity.queryNorm() returns Infinity if 
sumOfSquaredWeights=0.
This can result in a score of NaN (e. g. in TermScorer) if boost=0.0f.

A simple fix would be to return 1.0f in case zero is passed in.

See LUCENE-698 for discussions about this.
