It used to be the case that the scoring system turns up the same word
that was entered with a different capitalization, but with a lower
score than some other, more frequent word. To cope with this, there
was code that would order such candidates in the first slot no matter
what. This processing is now useless because fully matching words now
have a huge boost that ensures they will get to the top of the list,
before any non-fully matching word (which means, differing only by
capitalization or accents).
The bug that did happen with this was, if a fully-matching word got
matched by several processing passes, and the (chronologically) later
score affected to this word was weaker, it would result in the
duplicate removal pass removing the stronger score. This in turn would
mess with autocorrect.
In an effort to keep the risk at a minimum for MR1, this change does
not actually remove the useless code, but adds a check in the odd case
to avoid the bad situation. Another change will remove the code for
ICS release.

Words that matched user input with skipped characters used to be demoted
in BinaryDictionary by a constant factor and not at all in those dictionaries
implemented in java code. To represent the fact that the impact of a skipped
character gets larger as the word is shorter, this change will implement a
demotion that gets larger as the typed word is shorter. The demotion rate
is (n - 2) / (n - 1) where n is the length of the typed word for n >= 2.
It implements it for both BinaryDictionary and java dictionaries.

This change removes the boolean flag mJustReverted. Because we
preserve separator after canceling auto-correction according to
bug#3230708, there is no need for this flag now.

At the moment, if there is no binary dictionary, even when pressing the
word in the suggestion strip the option to save in the user dictionary
is not displayed. This change addresses that.

This change deprecates "nm" private IME options and introduces new
private option, <package name>.noMicrophone, instead.

When entering a word without accents the user expects the system to
add accents automatically if there is no other matching word. This
patch ensures the accented version is promoted accordingly and
autocorrection really takes place.
