In demo site, when looking for "theo", there is no direct hit. In this
case, the user is offered a list of nearest terms. Instead of offering
the list of nearest terms, it may be interesting to silently enrich the
query term by a trailing wild card, i.e. to search for "theo*", and show
these results. This behaviour could be triggered by a new configuration
variable say CFG_WEBSEARCH_SILENT_TRAILING_WILDCARD, or we could rely on
"ap" (=alternative patterns) for that. The functionality could be put
into search_unit_in_bibwords() or higher up into its caller.
