Add facility to simplify searching for defective or missing (gap) words.

Issue #63 resolved
Philip Burns created an issue

Suggestion from Doug Knox: add search facility to locate words with missing character transcriptions ("black dot" words), missing words ("diamond" words), missing spans of text ( "..."), and undefined punctuation (black quate words).

        Add a gap search feature.
    
        It's been quite clunky for someone who wants to fill in some gaps to
        perform a search to find them. One had to hunt around elsewhere to find
        out which special character meant what, then copy and paste the character
        (or learn how one enters it directly in one's system), and then remember
        to change the search to "ngram search," for some technical reason that is
        likely not of interest to gap searchers.
    
        So add a second form to the search-form.html template with easier canned
        links to searches for gaps.
