Change AlphaRatio provider freeleech mode; prevent spoiling user ratio from ambiguous filtered results.
The AR "Freeleech" search filter has changed to additionally return "Timed" and "Expired" freeleech items. However, this change makes results ambiguous to the point that a ratio can be ruined if an item snatched is expired or expiring. Therefore, when freeleech mode is active for this provider, all except pure *freeleech* items are discarded from results.
