--- Levenshtein function
--- Source: https://openquery.com.au/blog/levenshtein-mysql-stored-function
--- Levenshtein reference: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Levenshtein_distance
-
--- Arjen note: because the levenshtein value is encoded in a byte array, distance cannot exceed 255;
--- thus the maximum string length this implementation can handle is also limited to 255 characters.
