Now that we have result ranking, we can keep the street results for housenumber searches and reuse them in the next group round if required. Also fixes an issue where postcode and housenumber are in the query and one of them is wrong. Fixes #1200.
Nominatim

An instance with up-to-date data can be found at https://nominatim.openstreetmap.org. Nominatim is also used as one of the sources for the Search box on the OpenStreetMap home page.
