In ``SearchableQuerySet`` and ``SearchableManager``, search fields
    can either be a sequence, or a dict of fields mapped to weights.
    This function converts sequences to a dict mapped to even weights,
    so that we're consistently dealing with a dict of fields mapped to
    weights, eg: ("title", "content") -> {"title": 1, "content": 1}
