Add configurable Sweetspot Similarity factory
---------------------------------------------

                 Key: SOLR-1365
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/SOLR-1365
             Project: Solr
          Issue Type: New Feature
    Affects Versions: 1.3
            Reporter: Kevin Osborn
            Priority: Minor
             Fix For: 1.4


This is some code that I wrote a while back.

Normally, if you use SweetSpotSimilarity, you are going to make it do something 
useful by extending SweetSpotSimilarity. So, instead, I made a factory class 
and an configurable SweetSpotSimilarty. There are two classes. 
SweetSpotSimilarityFactory reads the parameters from schema.xml. It then 
creates an instance of VariableSweetSpotSimilarity, which is my custom 
SweetSpotSimilarity class. In addition to the standard functions, it also 
handles dynamic fields.

So, in schema.xml, you could have something like this:

<similarity class="org.apache.solr.schema.SweetSpotSimilarityFactory">
    <bool name="useHyperbolicTf">true</bool>

        <float name="hyperbolicTfFactorsMin">1.0</float>
        <float name="hyperbolicTfFactorsMax">1.5</float>
        <float name="hyperbolicTfFactorsBase">1.3</float>
        <float name="hyperbolicTfFactorsXOffset">2.0</float>

        <int name="lengthNormFactorsMin">1</int>
        <int name="lengthNormFactorsMax">1</int>
        <float name="lengthNormFactorsSteepness">0.5</float>

        <int name="lengthNormFactorsMin_description">2</int>
        <int name="lengthNormFactorsMax_description">9</int>
        <float name="lengthNormFactorsSteepness_description">0.2</float>

        <int name="lengthNormFactorsMin_supplierDescription_*">2</int>
        <int name="lengthNormFactorsMax_supplierDescription_*">7</int>
        <float 
name="lengthNormFactorsSteepness_supplierDescription_*">0.4</float>
 </similarity>

So, now everything is in a config file instead of having to create your own 
subclass.
