Tim Allison updated LUCENE-5469:
--------------------------------

    Description: 
I realize that FuzzyQuery.floatToEdits is deprecated, but I'd like to make a 
small fix for posterity.  Because of floating point issues, if a percentage 
leads to a number that is very close to a whole number of edits, our cast to 
int can improperly cause misses.

ddddd~0.8  will not match "ddddX"
eeeee~0.8 will not match "eeee" or "eeeeee"

This is a trivial part of the plan to reduce code duplication with LUCENE-5205.
