Provider for selecting a Person - with contact search. Does keyword matching and scoring across multiple tables using freetext index. First does BEGINS and CONTAINS searches in parallel. If neither results in anything, then falls back to SOUNDEX search.

User's own contacts, recently added + modified contacts, contacts modified or created by user. Matches on word boundaries or at start of field are scored extra highly. Contacts with lots of activity or lots of recent activity (according to the SAINT counters) are also preferred.

Returns person items only: Id = ExtraInfo = person_id, Type = "Person", StyleHint = "stop"

Stopped contacts are marked with stylehint = "stop" (but item.deleted = false)

Implemented by the PersonContactListFreetextSearchProvider class. The name of the MDO list is 'personcontact_freetextsearch'.
