remove implication flower_necklace -> necklace

This is an old but bad implication that was created without discussion in topic #10778.

Necklace implies jewelry, which we define as being made from metal, gems, beads, and so on. Most definitions of jewelry restrict its use to long-lasting materials; the Wikipedia entry specifically excludes flowers in its introduction. Necklaces woven from flowers, like in post #4546829, should not be tagged necklace or jewelry. "Flower necklaces" that are actual jewelry, as in post #4242344, will have to be tagged necklace manually.

If the tag has "necklace" in it it's very dumb to not be able to tag it necklace. If we're insistent on not tagging flowers with jewellery then it should either be renamed or necklace deimplicated from jewellery.

i would prefer removing the flower_necklace -> necklace implication for the same reason laurel_crown doesnt imply crown

another option would be to remove the implication then alias it to lei and remove the jewelry-flower necklaces like post #4533823

post #4636287 isn't a lei, so that alias is a bad idea. Do we have a reliable way to find flower shaped jewelry necklaces without flower necklace? I couldn't find one so maybe we should consider making something for those.
