This change will return the maximum match percentage between two strings after running jaro-winkler or soundex (and then jaro-winkler).

Initially these search results seem to create more false positive search results, so I'm hesitant to merge this PR.

george bush should not match 100% with George HABBASH, but soundex+jaro returns that high match result, which is too touchy.

Fixes: #150
