Subject: [PATCH] swedish: Remove -et or -en when stem ends in et

Removing -et and -en in general is problematic, as many words end in -et
or -en where this isn't a suffix, but very few end in -etet or -eten
where the last two letters aren't a suffix (and those that do don't seem
to suffer if we make the stem not have the -et).

Fixes #47
