Need a "filter by" option for fuzzy/mispelled #213

Sometimes I want to filter a table by input that can be messy. When filtering may be great to allow for a fuzzy match (e.g. max convolution score) which returns the best-possible match so that in a list of Malaria, Dengue, Flu, Influenza you can match well with: "mal aria" "Malria", "Dnuge", "Flue", "Influfluenza" etc. The option would be as a drop down in the 'filter' step/tile

Could be limited to lists of a certain size (eg 100 items) if performance is a concern
