(Whiteboard: [incorrect_implementation])

5 of the top 10 missed searches are misspellings of whatsapp. If we fuzzy search the tag field we will catch these and return results as if the user typed them correctly.
https://github.com/mozilla/zamboni/commit/1301451 To verify: Create an app and add a tag to it. Verify that a single word search query that is misspelled by 1 or 2 edit distances finds the app. (e.g. "whatsupp" should find an app tagged "whatsapp" b/c "u"->"a" is a single edit distance away).
