bug: stop words prevent some keyboards searches from returning results #178

Description

@mcdurdin

One thing I noticed: if I search for the keyboard on keyman, there are zero search results if I include more than one word.
Let me show you what I mean.
The search results for just the first word: https://keyman.com/keyboards?q=aleph
The search results for the first two words: https://keyman.com/keyboards?q=aleph%20with
Can this be fixed?

This turns out to be an oddity in SQL Server Full Text Search which we haven't struck with other keyboards. 'With' is a 'stop word', and so it gets ignored in a phrase search. This does feel a little broken. It's possible to disable stop words; we'll think about doing that.
