Title:
  Internal search ignores 'KATAKANA-HIRAGANA PROLONGED SOUND MARK'

Status in Mahara ePortfolio:
  Fix Committed
Status in Mahara 1.7 series:
  Fix Released

Bug description:
  Mahara's (1.5.6) internal search cannot handle Japanese character
  'KATAKANA-HIRAGANA PROLONGED SOUND MARK'.  This character 'ー' is
  frequently used.  For example 'データ (data)', 'サーバー (server)' or
  'ポートフォリオ (portfolio)'.

  The cause of problem is line 1102 in search/internal/lib.php.

  1102:        $text = preg_replace('/['. PREG_CLASS_SEARCH_EXCLUDE .
  ']+/u', ' ', $text);

  In this line, mahara replaces special characters specified by
  PREG_CLASS_SEARCH_EXCLUDE with ' '.  And 'KATAKANA-HIRAGANA PROLONGED
  SOUND MARK' is included in PREG_CLASS_SEARCH_EXCLUDE.

  The solution of this problem is very simple.  Just remove 'KATAKANA-
  HIRAGANA PROLONGED SOUND MARK' (code 0x30fc) from
  PREG_CLASS_SEARCH_EXCLUDE.  We can find the definition on line
  1198-1225.

  1221:
  
'\x{3099}-\x{309e}\x{30a0}\x{30fb}-\x{30fe}\x{3190}-\x{319f}\x{31c0}-\x{31cf}'.

  should be replaced with

  1221:
  
'\x{3099}-\x{309e}\x{30a0}\x{30fb}\x{30fd}\x{30fe}\x{3190}-\x{319f}\x{31c0}-\x{31cf}'.


  P.S. The definition of PREG_CLASS_SEARCH_EXCLUDE is originally from
  Drupal, and this fix was already applied.
