Merge #300

300: Fix prefix level position docids database r=curquiza a=ManyTheFish

The prefix search was inverted when we generated the DB.
Instead of searching if word had a prefix in prefix fst,
we were searching if the word was a prefix of a prefix contained in the prefix fst.
The indexer, now, iterate over prefix contained in the fst
and search them by prefix in the word-level-position-docids database,
aggregating matches in a sorter.

Fix #299
