Name normalization and dedupe
CI / ci (push) Successful in 1m32s
CI / ci (pull_request) Successful in 1m33s

Add harness.Normalize (lowercase, fold accents, strip punctuation, drop
filler words, collapse whitespace), harness.Similar (token-set Jaccard
similarity, threshold 0.85) and a Deduper built from the Regulars, Quest
log, pending suggestions and passed names that answers IsDuplicate.
