Public bug reported:

The 'mute_weight_value' option for the 'MuteChildWeigher' weigher is
useless.

This configuration option was used to artificially inflate the returned
weight for a cell that was unavailable, but it is not needed anymore and
a multiplier should be used instead. Since the normalization process is
already in place, this variable has no effect at all and a muted child
will get a weight of 1.0 regardless of the 'mute_weight_value'.
