说明：

public void beforeTextChanged(CharSequence s, int start, int count, int after)

s改变前的text字符，start当前起始位置，count被替换字符的长度（删除时为0），after新替代字符的长度

public void onTextChanged(CharSequence s, int start, int before, int count)

s改变后的text字符，start替换前的起始位置（同beforeTextChanged），before被替换字符的长度，count新替代字符的长度

public void afterTextChanged(Editable s)

s改变后的text字符
