About the "Match shape" option

The "จับคู่รูปร่าง" option adds the ability to search for a kanji using only the shape of the input, with no dependence on stroke order. This addresses the needs of people who want to input characters such as @k{卍}, @k{凸}, or @k{亞}, where the stroke order is not very clear. It also matches hiragana and katakana.

"จับคู่รูปร่าง" is still experimental. I am working to improve it or even integrate it into the other searches. Since it's a purely shape-based match, currently it works best for relatively simple inputs, and tends to fail for more complex inputs. It's a completely new system and so it's also as yet rather flaky.

The stroke order dependent search is unaffected by this addition.
