There is probably room for optimization. Rana no longer uses all cores to their full extent

Hi @chGoodchild I like this idea, but the implementation is not giving a good UX IMHO, if I executed rana --vanity-n-prefix=rana,h0dl,n0str and I got this output

Started mining process for vanity bech32 prefix[es]: 'npub1["rana", "h0dl", "n0str"]' (estimated pow: 16)

Here rana got a best match found 25% similar, in a four letter word 25% is just one letter, if we are going to allow a behavior like this we should increase the percent to something over 75%

let's see this one:

Here rana found 50% similar, word h0ld and it found the last two letters, for a better UX we should only check the first letters instead of the last ones.

How about something like this?

Now it works really well, can you please change the output to this:
