XML based query syntax

This module contains:

• a modular Lucene Query Parser where queries are expressed as XML
• JUnit test
• Example XML queries
• Test index (subset of Reuters 21578)

The original motivation for creating this package was outlined and discussed here.

Parser support includes:

• "Span" queries
• "Like this" queries
• Boolean, Term, and UserInput (parsed with existing query parser)
• BoostingQuery - a class that can downgrade scores for hits on certain terms rather than the hard-line approach taken by BooleanClause.Occurs.MUST_NOT
• FilteredQuery, RangeFilter, and "TermsFilter" for non-sequential terms
• "FuzzyLikeThis" a new query which is a cross between "LikeThis" and "fuzzy" but with better scoring of fuzzy terms than standard fuzzy queries
• A modular design with expandable support for new query/filter types

This code is dependent on the "queries" contrib module although the "CoreParser" can be compiled with just Lucene core if required
