Changes to search function

I’ve made some changes to the search function (on the main site) that I hope will make it more useful to everyone.

First, I changed the search settings so that it can find words as short as 2 characters. Previously, it was using the default of 4, which meant you couldn’t look up things like “V6″ or “NHK” or people’s names that only used 2 or 3 kanji.

Second, I’ve set it up so that the search will match all words you type in. Before, I had it in regular boolean mode - this meant that if you type in “ayumi hamasaki”, the search would match either “ayumi” or “hamasaki” without requiring both (unless you added + signs in front of both words). Now, if you search for “ayumi hamasaki”, it will only return results that include both.
