change default QParser to eliminate confusion regarding legacy semi-colon sort
spec

Key: SOLR-1036
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/SOLR-1036
Project: Solr
Issue Type: Improvement
Components: search
Reporter: Hoss Man
Assignee: Hoss Man
Fix For: 1.4
on the trunk, defType currently defaults to the "luceneWithSort" option, which
has legacy support for syntax like "field:value;sort_field desc" where the
semi-colon character is considered special if-and-only-if there is no "sort"
param.
this syntax has proved confusing to new users on at least one occasion, and has
been deprecated for a while.
In 1.4 we should change the default to use defType=lucene and add a note for
people upgrading about how to force the legacy semicolon behavior.
