I noticed that https://til.simonwillison.net/ search doesn't use porter stemming. I'd like to add that, but since the build script always operates on an existing database (to avoid re-rendering markdown and re-building image thumbnails) I'd like it to only add porter stemming if it's not there already.

So I'd like to be able to say "set up FTS to look like this, and fix it if it doesn't".

I think the neatest way to do that is with a replace=True argument to .enable_fts(), for consistency with def .create_view(self, name, sql, replace=True).

So the replace=True argument would check and see if the configured FTS exists already with the correct options (columns, stemming, triggers) - and if any of those are incorrect it would call .disable_fts() and then create a new FTS configuration with the correct options.
