/**

Find and return the index of the best matched template field. The method uses a matching algorithm which compares the content type of the template fields with that of the incoming contact item.

Matching Algorithm Steps:
========================

The algorithm is based on a scoring mechanism counting 'hits' and 'misses' in order to find the best possible field match within the fieldset of the template.

1. Loop through all the contact item fields of the template.

For each template field:

2. Perform a strict, or exact, match between the vCard mappings of the template field and the field to be matched.
3. If the vCard mappings match exactly, compare User Flags values and amend the overall score accordingly.
4. Loop through all the field types (TFieldType array) stored as part of the content type of the field to be matched.

For each field type of the field to be matched:

5. Loop through the field types of the iterated template field to find a field type match. Amend the 'hits' and 'misses' count accordingly.
6. Calculate the overall score weighing the 'hits' and 'misses' count.
7. Amend the overall score count in order to account for special cases (e.g. user defined fields)
8. Compare the overall score with the best score. If score > current best score, replace the 'bestScore' count and 'bestMatch' index.

9. Return the 'bestMatch' field index of the template field.

@param aContentType		The content type of the field to find a match for.
@param aUserFlags		The user flags of the field to find a match for.
@param aExactMatch		Boolean to indicate an exact field match within the template.

@return The index of the best matched template field, if found, else KErrNotFound.
