Important!

This PR changes processing of relevant words, a concept that is used in two different features in the plugin: internal linking suggestions and insights. It was agreed that the changes implemented here affect the internal linking suggestions feature, under a presumption that the insights feature gets totally stripped from the plugin. According to recent research, however, our users do make use of the insights feature. We need to decide if we still want to strip the insights functionality or we want to decouple insights from internal linking suggestions completely and use the old mechanism of relevant words computation for the insights and the new one (from this PR) for the internal linking suggestions.

Please do not merge this PR before it is decided on ☝️

Fixes #2139
