Housenumbers containing a dash are not found #5272

Author: lonvia This is not directly related to the dash. The address is found when the query is [http://nominatim.openstreetmap.org/search.php?q=41-BS%2C+Goedestraat%2C+utrecht 41-BS, Goedestraat, Utreecht]. The searches with a search group are ordered badly. The ones with the fewest search terms should come first, they seem to be last right now. |

Author: lonvia Also it looks like the preference of having countries at the end of the search term does no longer work correctly. Most probably a regression from [changeset:e16fcf8/nominatim]. |

Author: lonvia Fixed the regression with country names which fixes the issue with this address. |

A housenumber in OSM may contain letters, dashes or other characters (source: [http://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Key:addr:housenumber]). However Nominatim cannot always find address nodes containing a dash.
It will not find "Goedestraat 41-BS, Utrecht", although this node does exist: http://www.openstreetmap.org/node/2679526109
It seems like it cannot find such addresses if the part after the dash are letters; if it contains another number it will find the address. For example "S.L. Louwesstraat 2-37, Enschede" correctly resolves to [http://www.openstreetmap.org/node/2744509276].
Both addresses should be treated the same way: "building# dash appartment#"
