708: Reduce memory usage of the MatchingWords structure r=ManyTheFish a=loiclec

## What does this PR do?
1. Reduces the memory usage caused by the creation of a 10-word query tree by 20x.
This is done by deduplicating the `MatchingWord` values, which are heavy because of their inner DFA. The deduplication works by wrapping each `MatchingWord` in a reference-counted box and using a hash map to determine whether a `MatchingWord` DFA already exists for a certain signature, or whether a new one needs to be built.
2. Avoid the worst-case scenario of creating a `MatchingWord` for extremely long words that cannot be indexed by milli.

e.g. add one facet value incrementally with a group_size = X and then
add another one with group_size = Y
It is not actually possible to do so with the public API of milli,
but I wanted to make sure the algorithm worked well in those cases
anyway.
The bugs were found by fuzzing the code with fuzzcheck, which I've added
to milli as a conditional dev-dependency. But it can be removed later.
Most of these are calling clone when the struct supports Copy.
Many are using & and &mut on `self` when the function they are called
from already has an immutable or mutable borrow so this isn't needed.
I tried to stay away from actual changes or places where I'd have to
name fresh variables.
483: Enhance matching words r=Kerollmops a=ManyTheFish
# Summary
Enhance milli word-matcher making it handle match computing and cropping.
# Implementation
## Computing best matches for cropping
Before we were considering that the first match of the attribute was the best one, this was accurate when only one word was searched but was missing the target when more than one word was searched.
Now we are searching for the best matches interval to crop around, the chosen interval is the one:
1) that have the highest count of unique matches
> for example, if we have a query `split the world`, then the interval `the split the split the` has 5 matches but only 2 unique matches (1 for `split` and 1 for `the`) where the interval `split of the world` has 3 matches and 3 unique matches. So the interval `split of the world` is considered better.
2) that have the minimum distance between matches
> for example, if we have a query `split the world`, then the interval `split of the world` has a distance of 3 (2 between `split` and `the`, and 1 between `the` and `world`) where the interval `split the world` has a distance of 2. So the interval `split the world` is considered better.
3) that have the highest count of ordered matches
> for example, if we have a query `split the world`, then the interval `the world split` has 2 ordered words where the interval `split the world` has 3. So the interval `split the world` is considered better.
## Cropping around the best matches interval
Before we were cropping around the interval without checking the context.
Now we are cropping around words in the same context as matching words.
This means that we will keep words that are farther from the matching words but are in the same phrase, than words that are nearer but separated by a dot.
> For instance, for the matching word `Split` the text:
`Natalie risk her future. Split The World is a book written by Emily Henry. I never read it.`
will be cropped like:
`…. Split The World is a book written by Emily Henry. …`
and not like:
`Natalie risk her future. Split The World is a book …`

Instead of using an arbitrary limit we encode the absolute position in a u32
using one strong u16 for the field id and a weak u16 for the relative position in the attribute.
fixes after review
bump the version of the tokenizer
implement a first version of the stop_words
The front must provide a BTreeSet containing the stop words
The stop_words are set at None if an empty Set is provided
add the stop-words in the http-ui interface
Use maplit in the test
and remove all the useless drop(rtxn) at the end of all tests
Integrate the stop_words in the querytree
remove the stop_words from the querytree except if it was a prefix or a typo
